The paper attempts to describe the space of possible mind designs by first equating all minds to software. Next it proves some properties of the mind design space such as infinitude of minds, size and representation complexity of minds. A survey of mind design taxonomies is followed by a proposal for a new field of investigation devoted to study of minds, intellectology.
