Clique Space(TM). "Medium. Mode. Model. Mind."(TM).

A nice catchphrase encompassing a core notion within the Clique Space concept.

The notion is that Cliques contain a medium and a mode. The medium describes what each Participant is physically capable of doing while the mode describes what the Participants are actually doing within what they're capable of doing. Clearly therefore, the mode is a collection of values which are set against a set of parameters which comprise the medium.

Just how this mechanism ultimately realises Clique Space has been the subject of the POC development. It is ongoing, however much of the mechanism has been worked through. This currently remains confidential because I intend to submit a patent for the mechanism. To summarise, Clique's are models of collaborative exchanges going on between people through a certain physical medium. Each of a Clique's Participants exhibit a certain mode, and this mode which is governed by the mode of one of the Clique's Participants known as the Owner. The devices which are actually doing the collaborating siphon their state into Agent Devices which martial, cross reference, and represent this external device state information as Cliques. The Agent Devices may send control information to the external devices depending on changes in intent of each Participant's underlying Identity.

Clique Space is all about representing robust and flexible identity (Identity) in a cyberspatial context. One or more Identities are projected by individuals to others through Clique Spaces: administrative domains which are capable of exchanging information between one another in federations. This federation mechanism is facilitated through Clique activity; Cliques are generally free to move like pseudopodia between Clique Spaces as Participants are created and destroyed because individuals from different Clique Spaces join and leave Cliques.

Hence, Identities convey autonomous individual supervisory presences. Identities produce Participants in Cliques which indicate collaborative engagements. Clique Space looks to me like a neural network, and I believe that the mechanism I have conceived is capable of providing a bridge between neural activity and cognitive function. Furthermore, I believe that Clique Space may well be the centrepiece of what is necessary to manifest an individual in a synthetic medium. Hence, mind.

Hell, I might as well assert that "Medium. Mode. Model. Mind." is a trademark also. So it is.
