Ciao Mohamed A. (we have another Mohammad :-)

I think its great to make such cross-thoughts into philosophy.

Philosophy is about "concepts" of what we do. Philosophers are good at 
thinking beneath concepts to make new ones. 
A lot of quite radical computer applications are badly under-conceptualised.

Deleuze & Guattari are interesting for trying to rethink "holism".

I actually think the work of Gene Gendlin is very good & relevant, though 
he only deals with computer programs tangentially.

For instance: A Process Model 
<http://nupress.northwestern.edu/content/process-model-1>.

Its difficult philosophy to understand at first. 
But he centrally deals with the issue of "emergent holism"--and that, in 
effect, is what TW usage is orientated to. 
On the one hand, TW "deconstructs" through "fragments" radically--yet 
provides rich tools for re/creating "wholes."

The point is its the ACTIVITY of the user that instantiates the whole.

*I would hazard that the major cognitive issue for the user is to get to 
the point they know enough to "reconstruct the semantic whole" from 
proto-parts.*
