Communicating with Interactive ArticlesTo design an interactive article successfully requires a diverse set of editorial, design, and programming skills. While some individuals are able to author these articles on their own, many interactive articles are created by a collective team consisting of multiple members with specialized skills, for example, data analysts, scripters, editors, journalists, graphic designers, and typesetters, as outlined in . The current generation of authoring tools do not acknowledge this collaboration. For example, to edit only the text of this article requires one to clone its source code using git, inst…
Communicating with Interactive ArticlesBut most importantly, without a permanent reservoir of ideas, you will not be able to develop any major ideas over a longer period of time because you are restricting yourself either to the length of a single project or the capacity of your memory. Exceptional ideas need much more than that.
Prefer associative ontologies to hierarchical taxonomies | Let ideas and beliefs emerge organically | Leaps of insight emerge from prior thoughtI did this because one thing of the Noguchi Filing System made sense to me: humans remember the time of an event well, so you should order material by its date.
Why Categories for Your Note Archive are a Bad Idea • Zettelkasten MethodTopic clusters emerge by themselves, especially surrounding keywords or tags. The resulting archive fits the way you think because it grew according to your interests. Also, things are labeled in a way especially meaningful to you, not anybody else. This is all about personal information management, so personalization is a must, and increasing idiosyncrasy will likely make things better.
Why Categories for Your Note Archive are a Bad Idea • Zettelkasten MethodHow might we design mediums in which “readers” naturally form rich associations between the ideas being presented? How might we design mediums which “readers” naturally engage creatively with the material? How might we design mediums in which “readers” naturally contend with competing interpretations?
