Design Structures Index (1993)
The index above contains 2000 terms, (reduced from 5000), source: the Design structures reading brick: a compendium
of 700 pages of diverse articles and texts in mathematics,
visual art, sound composition, and technology. The terms thus function as pointers into a non-traditional take on mathematics.
They represent the following topic areas mapped into computer animation/visualisation and computer music composition:
Ratio; Set; Number; Relation & Group; Recursion & Automata; Euclidian Geometry; Vectors; Probability;
Calculus; Circular Functions and Spectral Analysis; Iterated Function Systems; Fourier Transforms; Games; Fuzzy Logic;
Vector Fields & Calculus; Lyndenmeyer Systems; Genetic Algorithms; Continuos Probability & Non-Deterministic Fractals;
Chaos Theory; Deterministic Fractals; Topology.
Words are used to identify the underlying mathematical principles
for each topic, and subsequently the non-traditional ways in which these principles
are applied.
