Charlie, very interesting project and something along the lines I have been thinking about for many years. I started by extending a data dictionary model to cater for knowledge objects (my PhD dissertation) which lead very quickly into how to describe the various complex objects involved and their relationships to each other, with the user and with the application(s). This led into how to explain what is going on in a knowledge based system and in turn this required the addition of much more content than required for the application itself, content of many formats to provide reliable explanations of the application processing, the 'thinking'.
Over the past decade, I have been focussing on oral history as a mechanism for capturing the type of background information and the use of Toulmin argument structures for representing the various relationships. We have been working of publishing interviews with eminent visual artists from Australia and South Korea using a simple topic map to provide the navigation structure intra and inter interviews (http://cultconv.com). There is a great book, Mapping Hypertext, which details immediately the issue with writing a hypertext style book (the book is written as a hypertext). You very quickly become 'lost in hyperspace' and lose the narrative. Throughout all of my research career, the issue that continually crops up is context. I think this is the crucial component to keep things understandable. Yet no agreed understanding of context exists yet we all use it, manipulate it, etc. You can find most of my publications on https://www.researchgate.net bobj On Sunday, 29 November 2020 at 14:49:11 UTC+11 Charlie Veniot wrote: > Project: ORM-ish à la TiddlyWiki > <https://intertwingularityslicendice.neocities.org/CJ_ORM.htm> > > I've just posted a blog entry about the project and how it really touches > upon a very long list of my all-time favourite things: My new and > ultimate intertwingularity project > <https://www.intertwingularityslicendice.ca/2020/11/my-new-and-ultimate-intertwingularity.html> > > There are many links in that blog to a whole bunch of interesting (well, > wildly interesting to me...) articles in that blog entry. > > Project status: I've been really busy experimenting with "forms" (widgets) > for entering information, and am in the process of dividing the "coded > fact" field into multiple fields.
