Realization Mode

• Category: class
• Defined by: gmeow:slices/creative-works
• Box roles: TBox role (What is this?)

The mode in which a musical Expression realizes its Work — a VALUE vocabulary (individuals, never subclasses). The oral-tradition guarantee requires that no shape ever mandate a notated realization.

Structure

Subclass of: gufo:QualityValue

Practical Pattern

Use gmeow:RealizationMode as a specialized kind of gufo:QualityValue. Add statement metadata or a standpoint when the assertion needs provenance, confidence, or vantage.

Usage Advice

Use when

• Use as the value vocabulary for how a musical Expression is realized — notated, performed, improvised, oral, machine-generated; referenced by gmeow:realizationMode.

Avoid when

• Avoid splitting Expression into notated/performed subclasses (Principle 9) and never let a shape mandate the notated mode (the oral-tradition guarantee).

How to use

• Reference a seeded gmeow:RealizationMode individual from an Expression via gmeow:realizationMode; extend with new individuals (not subclasses) when a new mode appears.

Examples

• gmeow:realizationModeNotated a gmeow:RealizationMode.
