A map of the DKR contents and external references must be provided in
several forms to facilitate the possiblility of the "Aaahaaa" happening
as the author uses the map along with actual contents to achieve
understanding of some relationship. There are not just solid lines
connecting different items, but several different symbologies, dashed
lines, enclosing figures, and other visual, auditory, and tactile clues,
to help identify various trajectories of primary and subordinate thought
vector information flows.
When an item becomes part of the DKR, the author must define
relationships between the new and other content explicitly, then later,
other collaborators may add or delete 'connections'. or even create
personal maps which help one individual but might be worthless to
another. Along with this, the DKR has some smarts to do some mapping of
its own, presentling suggestions for possible linkages not identified by
authors.
I think the big idea is that the DKR should produce several differnet
types of node maps, ranging from simple indented structures like you
might find on a mail list, to the complete (maybe initially
overwhelming) multidimensional structure of multimedia objects contained
in and related to a DKR. Then, any user should be able to customize the
symbology for a specific purpose.
Thanks and Best Regards,
