    Un dieu donne le feu
     Pour faire l'enfer;
    Un diable, le miel
   Pour faire le ciel.

TRACTATUS PARADOXICO-PHILOSOPHICUS

3	Niche: an organizationally closed unity specifies a possible domain of interactions (shared processes) with its own and other organizations and processes such that without this domain the unity disintegrates.
3.01	Call this domain the niche of the unity.
3.02	The unity shares processes with its niche.
3.1	Cognitive domain: consider the niche and all other intersections of an organizationally closed unity with other organizations and processes.
3.11	The unity shares processes with its cognitive domain.
3.2	Interaction: consider the activity of the processes shared in the intersection of the cognitive domains of one or more organizationally closed unities.
3.3	Perception: consider the activity within the closed organizations that form part of the cognitive domain of an organizationally closed unity.
3.4	Distinction: consider the intersection of a closed organization with one or more processes, thus separating them from their background (other processes).
3.5	Cognition: consider the generation of new closed organizations that share processes with and expand the cognitive domain of an organizationally closed unity.

4	Observer: consider an observer as an organizationally closed unity that shares processes with its cognitive domain.
4.01	An observer perceives, distinguishes and knows within its cognitive domain.
4.1	The cognitive domain of an observer may share processes with the cognitive domain of another observer, such that:
4.11	The observer may perceive, distinguish and know the other observer, which may perceive, distinguish and know the first observer.
4.2	Two or more observers may interact through their cognitive domains forming open organizations, closed organizations and even organizationally closed unities, all made of observers.
4.3	Trivial: consider one or more observers that respond predictably to stimuli.
4.31	Non-trivial: consider one or more observers that respond unpredictably to stimuli.
