<strong>of</strong> political desires in today’s hostile climate <strong>of</strong> universal informatics.<br />

We <strong>of</strong>fer these notes for a liberated computer language as a response<br />

to the new universalism <strong>of</strong> the informatic sciences that have subsumed<br />

all <strong>of</strong> Goux’s symbolic economics.<br />

Most computer languages are created and developed according to<br />

the principles <strong>of</strong> efficiency, utility, and usability. <strong>The</strong>se being but a<br />

fraction <strong>of</strong> the human condition, the following language specification<br />

shuns typical machinic mandates in favor <strong>of</strong> an ethos <strong>of</strong> creative<br />

destruction. <strong>The</strong> language contains data types, operators, control<br />

structures, and functions, the latter defined using a standard<br />

verb - object syntax adopted from computer science whereby the function<br />

name appears first followed by the variable being passed to the<br />

function (example: functionName VARIABLE).<br />

an entity that questions its own status as an entity,<br />

which it may or may not actually be (see also Denial<br />

and Refusal)<br />

a null entity lacking any and all material or immaterial<br />

distinction. <strong>The</strong> empty type allows for dynamic<br />

creation <strong>of</strong> new, unimagined types at runtime.<br />

a fault or imperfection associated with another entity<br />

an entity that oscillates between two other data<br />

types<br />

contains the complete universe <strong>of</strong> all information and<br />

matter<br />

an associative entity connecting two or more other<br />

entities<br />

an entity that is readable, writable, or executable only<br />

on a hypothetical machine<br />

an entity that involuntarily expresses itself as any<br />

other data type
