Findability, Searching, and Creativity
In a comment on another thread, I'm not too sure what "meaning is generated" indicates here, so I will take the liberty of interpreting it as "creativity", or something in that neighborhood. I don't say that findability, or more generally search, is everything but I think they are often closely connected. I would like to… -

What's happening in your ZK this month, June 2026?
This month I can use a framework I've found to organize and connect a range of older notes. For some time I've had notes about different kinds of biases, confusions, illusions, and fallacies, which are usually referred to as cognitive biases, or sometimes emotional biases. Notes from two books in particular (The Art of… -
Comparative / ancient linguistics and philosophy needs
I'm self-homeschooling in logic (real version
), language, history, geography, the "pedagogy of mathematics" - you name it, i'm into it. In my finding, there are seven kinds of inferring: deduction, induction, abduction, analogy, intuition, and the other two are in my piles of jottings which is why I need a Zettel! I'm… -

Zettelkasten as a Productivity System
Some visual aids are designed to simplify specific elements of a system, thereby improving our understanding. They look very simple. Exploration maps like this help us to understand the connections between existing concepts. At first glance, they may seem very complicated. However, they can help us discover hidden insights. -
Re: Findability, Searching, and Creativity
@tomp, your subsequent interest in hand bookbinding, etc., as a hobby seems to be very dependent on your personal characteristics. What made all of that interesting to you, whereas someone else could have gone to the library searching for "better ways to bind thick reports at work" and walked away empty-handed, personally… -
Re: Zettelkasten as a Productivity System
The perspective hierarchy point is the most interesting thing in this exchange. If Luhmann's numbering emerged through use into something hierarchy-like rather than being imposed upfront, that supports rather than undermines the diagram: context emergent rather than pre-assigned, even when it eventually stabilises into…
