I am not sure whether we ought to represent them separately, as they
are dialectically related, that is, two aspects of the same coin that
one-sidedly ( :-) ) represent the whole thing. This is what I have
been suggesting for a while, not that we need to represent them
separately, but that we need to look at Yrjö's structure and think it
in terms of representing the dialectical co-presence of the ideal and
material. Michael

not made it that far yet either. I do think that all cultural

both material and ideal, and it may well make sense to extend this
approach
to all elements of an activity system, I just have not gotten there
in my
thinking.
