Positions for the Applied Arts

   This is a preliminary effort to begin to corral the basic and or essential occupations of the various applied arts. This is likely overdue; and I have new inspiration to start creating my textbook. I cannot effectively speak as muscularly about the business of the applied arts if I do not stand on the specifics. And so it begins.
   This "creation" is known to be inconclusive, and to need editing. The list itself may yet be modified (audio). It will eventually need to be expanded (adding definition, one by one, once edited and finalized). For now, pulled quickly from the sources listed, such as it is, here it is.
   In particular, this will be one of those posts where I actively encourage feedback and comment. Please add or edit.
   Thank you in advance.
