Predicates Project
Understanding the lifeworld of a culture is to understand how experience is factorized into specific domains in that culture. To do that we study concepts and their operations in specific domains of experience. This research also tracks the historical development of conceptual structures and logical relations between concepts within specific domains. The Predicates Project aims to open new fields of study based on the data and insights created by the project.
