- Category: property
- Defined by:
gmeow:slices/notation - Box roles: RBox role (What is this?)
A loss that this notation system incurs when rendering canonical frame-relative content (e.g. quantization to 12-EDO, dropping microtiming).
Structure
Property shape: object property; gmeow:NotationProjectionProfile -> gmeow:ProjectionLoss
Practical Pattern
Use gmeow:declaredLoss from gmeow:NotationProjectionProfile to gmeow:ProjectionLoss when the relationship itself belongs in the native GMEOW graph.
Common Companion Terms
gmeow:NotationProjectionProfile, gmeow:ProjectionLoss
Usage Advice
Use when
- Use on a projection profile to declare a kind of information the notation drops or approximates when rendering canonical content — the explicit ledger entry that makes the projection's lossiness queryable rather than silent.
Avoid when
- Avoid using it for a parameter the notation carries faithfully (that is
gmeow:representableParameter) and avoid declaring a loss without pointing itsgmeow:accountsForParameterat the parameter it omits.
How to use
- Attach each
gmeow:ProjectionLossto the profile viagmeow:declaredLossand link the loss to the omitted parameter withgmeow:accountsForParameterso the completeness gate can reconcile it.
