program [see use]

i found this definition of program by federico soriano interesting:

program
to compose today means to create programs.  we invent or propose them; we mix them, give them support, denaturalize them.  program is not the same thing as function.  it is more than function because program is not direct and has more than one voice.  program is less [than function] because it defines by actions and activities (verbs) and not by conventions (substantives).  programs are also mutable, transformable in time.  we must define programs which can forget or can be transformed later.
