a piece of written text that is about information

Notes (noun) means: a piece of written text that is about information. It emerges from piece, text, information, write: The portion of a thing with a boundary holds a collection of marks made by writing, which together convey a pattern of differences that constitute knowledge. In the EmergenceLexicon it sits at computed level 14, chaining down to the four foundations (space, time, energy, pattern).
