Sceenius: Y2K and a universal graphical mapping language

February 9th, 2016 by Charles Cameron

This project — an actual world-map of this kind — is hopelessly utopian, impossible, needed, encyclopedic like Wikipedia, a secular bead game in its own right, and in general probably best left as a Hilbert-like challenge for future generations to gnaw at..

Next post: a few examples of examples of graph-types that should be included.

    Hi Charles,
    .
    Was it in the Social Edge forum that ThomasBarnett’s book, The Pentagon’s New Map, was first introduced? I think maps, both the geographic type, and concept maps, can serve as platforms to connect people around the world with each other, and complex ideas and solutions. However, to use the maps effectively requires a commitment of time for learning, for sharing, and for network building, as well as a commitment to hosting the datamaps and keeping them updated.
