02 Second Order/Presence Conditions/Structural Gathering

Structural Gathering

Structural gathering names multiple participating relations held as one readable arrangement. Where nested relation names relation participating within relation, structural gathering names the condition through which multiple such relations can be read together — held as one arrangement rather than as separate nested conditions. Structural gathering does not name aggregation or collection; it names the readable condition of multiple relations holding together as an arrangement.

Trace

Read

Structural gathering becomes recognisable where multiple participating relations can be read together as one arrangement — where what is nested can be held as a readable whole rather than traced individually.
