Crossborn
A distinction that appears only when several perspectives interact, credited to the interaction
Definition
Mechanism
When several perspectives work on the same question, as in a PerspectiveEnsemble, each distinction that appears in the combined work is checked against each perspective taken alone. A distinction none of them contains alone is recorded as crossborn and credited to the interaction, together with the perspectives whose contact produced it.
Invariants
- A distinction is recorded as crossborn only if it is absent from every contributing perspective taken alone.
- The perspectives whose interaction produced it are named.
Risks
Failure modes
Hidden origin
