| year/next year.
|
| I was planning to build it with ultralig.ht, but I'm not 100%

| interested in for research is textual/reader mode, and the rest

| rearranging the contents on these giant rolls effectively making
| a hybrid between a mind map and a zui.
|
| He had a "linking" idea that involved an indexing system where
| you'd get another roll of paper out of the cabinet earmarked with
| labels and then unrolled it to the "linked" region. Then he'd
| fold it back on a table and have them both side by side.
|
| The general applicability was immediately apparent. I worked on
| it as a new way to browse the web over 10 years ago for a few
| months but then didn't stick with it.
|
| I keep telling myself I'll work more on it but you know, anxiety

| geometry.
|
| This only sounds wacky because it's new. Let's put it this
| way. Our rules for the written word doesn't really go high up
| in the abstraction. In English we have a character set that
| serves as phonetic and a bit of a fuzzy etymology history and
| that's it.
|
| We don't arrange the words differently depending on the
| expressed intent. There's no squares, circles or triangles
| that the words enfold upon. No lines or arrows in the
| commonly written word. It's not part of the writing system.
|
| But if you look at how students take notes, you'll invariably
| find many invent their own extensions to accommodate for this
| oversight. Shapes, colors, squiggles, and other affectations
| carry semantic weight. It's been invented and reinvented
| millions of times.
|
| I've asked people whenever I see it in the past 10 years or
| so and almost nobody realizes they invented their own system.
| They are just doing "what makes sense to them". And there's
| lots of commonalities. People reinvent the same things.
|
| Semiotics is a natural tool of expression, comprehension and
| understanding. The wall between it and the written word is an
| artificial construct that people naturally ignore in their
| personal writings. I hear people think others won't be able
| to understand their notes - it's just for them. You'd be
| surprised how universal these linguistic extensions actually
| are.
|
| This interaction is an important tool in expressing the
| natures of corpi transclusions on the project we call the
| web. We've got the pixels to do it now. Let's go!
|
| Anyways. I'm sure this reads like I'm a nutjob. And yes, I've
