ARAKAWA Naoya : Situation is a super-class of Event and State. A situation is associated with time and place (location). A situation is associated with its participants. A situation is associated with attributes and relations of the participants.
These should be put into higher abstractions. Putting it into higher abstractions does confuse the categories. For example, you can have a state of an event or an event of a state where these terms do not refer to compositions. So then the events, states, time, place, participants attributes and relations of the participants might be specified by examples rather than high abstraction essences (which is what you were effectively doing). A situation is associated with objects, a participant might be an active object of some kind. But we do not want an active object to only refer to human beings or animals. For instance in the concept of a program we think of a computational operation as an active event but we also need to think of it as an object in itself. This ambiguity is extremely important in AGI because we want to be able to think of things like events (or computational operations) as objects for a variable position. In physics we need to think about active objects that can cause reactions and so on.
