Abstract
In an attempt to probe the objects belonging to the quantum species of structure,we develop the idea of using observables of the Boolean species of structures,as coordinatizing objects in the quantum world. This results in a contextualisticperspective on the latter through local Boolean measurement reference frames.The semantics of this representation is discussed extensively.
