Special:Badtitle/NS90:Forum:Wiki Talk/Section on Literary Analysis and Systems.

I feel tropes are like the rules of fictional worlds, so it might be interesting to have a place to discuss the systems of such worlds. This is a bit different from world building, but more like diagrams of how tropes relate and formal systems that might give mathmatically and philosophically interesting properties. Maybe it might be how tropes are formed from a psychological perspective, or their play into psychology. After seeing a pataphysical search engine design, I think it would be worth discussing the relations between creativity, tropes, and software. If it was called something like "systems" (named after systems biology) it could contain all these. Mostly it would be a place to rant when you think you have an interesting idea about tropes on a higher level than just listing them. It should be fun in the esoteric lagnuage sense. Also I feel systems are an important part of analyzing media, especially when we have lots of patterns (tropes) to represent.
