Conjecture

A knowledge commons that admits only published, credentialed sources leaves out most of what is known. Hidalgo counts the experience of mechanics, gardeners and musicians as knowledge alongside papers and patents. So a commons that wants the whole alphabet has to take contributions from practitioners, not only from people who publish, and has to give them credit in a form they can use.

  • groundsThe Infinite Alphabet, hidalgo

    But this elite definition leaves out the very valid experiences of car mechanics, gardeners, and musicians.
