🌄 An introduction to the second renaissance (this time between worlds) and associated emerging ecosystem - aka liminal web, metamodern, teal, integral, metacrisis.
[x] Consolidate all the old (2022) random visualization ideas into an inbox https://github.com/life-itself/ecosystem/issues/2082024-01-04 @catherinet1 reviewed all open issues in ecosystem repo and added all visualisation ideas below.
Where we should go ...
Meta-Goal: share this work early and often and get more attention as that is part of helping the sensemaking in the area ...
[ ] "Previous work/Literature review" Write up 1-2 blog posts (or do live chat and then post that with a write-up of it, or ... )
[ ] The visualization inspirations
[ ] Approaches to sensemaking and some previous inspiration (either in our area or outside) e.g. memetic tribes, liminal web piece, even our own sensemaking efforts etc
[ ] Draw 2d maps a lot starting with landmarks we know e.g. people, thinkers, podcasts, blogs and seeing to identify "regions" (emergently potentially)
[ ] Reflect on other options e.g. text-driven analysis
[ ] Can cycle through different possibilities, e.g. different categories of things we might map, e.g. of sub-areas of the territory, like engaged spirituality, or eco-sprituality, or metamodernists etc
[ ] Share on Twitter and ask for feedback
[ ] Map can show several things e.g. the major regions and the "hubs/campfires" etc on that map
[ ] Matt: suggest focusing on a few more focused maps instead of putting everything on one big map
[ ] Have a sprint week mid to late January
[ ] Ship blog post with existing material ahead of sprint
[ ] Sensemaking is broad. Can we define our focus/intention more?
[ ] Meta-goal: share more, get more attention for the work we're doing. Even if it's critical attention (helps us get feedback and generate discussion). We can't make people connect or not connect, or align etc.
[ ] Text scraping and analysis would be a novel and interesting thing to do here
[ ] Matt has written scrapers before, might not be too hard to do... a couple of days
[ ] Take various thinkers in this space: where would we plot them?
[ ] Podcasts could be a concrete area to do
[ ] Analysing transcripts from podcasts could also be interesting
[ ] Generating a knowledge graph showing key terms / thing they tend to talk about
Old (2022) Visualisation Ideas
2024-01-04 @catherinet1 reviewed all open issues in ecosystem repo and added all visualisation ideas below.
Sensemaking Methods Brainstorm
Dec 2021 - Method for embedding and/or downloading vis
so that can be used on e.g. front page or downloaded by users ...
Notes
Crudely a d3 vis is just an svg so can just embed the svg. For downloading we might want a png and also to embed our logo somehow.
For embedding across into another page maybe we just have the code as a raw component ...
Found https://github.com/exupero/saveSvgAsPng via https://stackoverflow.com/questions/36303964/save-d3-chart-as-image but repo is marked as archived and no changes in 2y.
