===Blending===

The process of blending results in the creation of an '''emergent structure''' in the blended space. This new structure, which is not found directly in any of the input spaces, is necessary to achieve a particular goal. The emergent structure is generated through the three following operations: 
*'''Composition''' – provides relations between elements which are only observable by composing together elements from separate input spaces
*'''Completion''' – passes on to the blending space additional meaning which is associated with elements in input spaces
*'''Elaboration''' – represents the idea of dynamically running the blend as if it was a simulation<ref name="Fauconnier_1998"/> 

'''Selective projection''' refers to the observation that not everything from the input spaces is projected to the blend.<ref name="Fauconnier_1998"/>
