# Concept Blending

Fauconnier-Turner 4-space model: Generic + Input1 + Input2 → Blended Space. Produce novel concepts by selectively projecting structure from two input mental spaces into a blended space that develops emergent structure.

## HARD-GATE

Cannot exit strategy until ≥80% of each budget line is consumed OR yield targets are met with justification for remaining budget.

## Available Tactics

| Tactic | Role |
|--------|------|
| combination-mapping | Enumerate blend dimensions and viable combinations |
| blend-construction | Construct complete 4-space blends with emergent structure |
| emergence-detection | Detect emergent properties in completed blends |

## Available SOPs

| SOP | Role |
|-----|------|
| input-space-construction | Build input spaces for source concepts |
| generic-space-extraction | Extract shared abstract structure |
| blend-composition | Compose new connections in blended space |
| blend-completion | Complete blend with background knowledge |
| blend-elaboration | Run blend as mental simulation |
| vital-relation-mapping | Map vital relations between concepts |
| combinatorial-synthesis | Synthesize blending outputs |

## Execution Guidance

1. **Select Input Concepts**: Choose two concepts with rich internal structure
2. **Build Input Spaces**: Use input-space-construction to elaborate each concept's elements, relations, and attributes
3. **Extract Generic Space**: Use generic-space-extraction to find shared abstract structure
4. **Map Vital Relations**: Use vital-relation-mapping to identify compression opportunities
5. **Compose Blend**: Use blend-composition to selectively project and create new connections
6. **Complete Blend**: Use blend-completion to recruit background knowledge
7. **Elaborate Blend**: Use blend-elaboration to run the blend as simulation and discover emergent structure

## Available Tactics

Optional, no fixed order; the final leaf is always a sop.
