A curated syllabus of essays, papers, talks, and books about how the design of notational systems (mathematical, musical, juggling, programming) shapes human thought and creativity. It is a link collection rather than software, organized around the question of how notation influences thinking.
Use cases
- find readings on how notation affects thinking
- build a course on notation and cognition
- research why some notations are better than others
- explore examples like siteswap, bra-ket, and APL notation
- find papers on cognitive dimensions of notations
- curate material on mathematical notation design
When to choose
- you want a curated reading list on notation design and cognition
- you are teaching or self-studying how representational systems shape thought
- you want diverse examples spanning math, physics, art, and programming
When to avoid
- you need software or a tool rather than reading material
- you want a formal textbook with exercises rather than a link collection
- you need actively maintained content with a license
