Sylabbi


< DRAFT+ >

Sylabbi is a tool for hybrid curated trails/narratives. An alternative to how people currently select the books (and other media) they study, beyond whimsicality. It's a part of the 🔗text system.

Ties to:
    * 🔗text, the broader project
    * 🔗hypertheory
    * F2F transport, maybe 🔗linkroute
    * 🔗commonground (for CHT's basics list)
    * 🔗tt-archive (with subsets, like "reading_now/asap")
    * 🔗hyperreader
    * 🔗workflow-ethering
    * #comphermeneutics
    * "reading clubs" / "reading rooms" / "study groups"
    * XXX🔗postmedia


 

Basics

"At the same time, the whole logic of choice ("what to read") is also considered and made a part of the system, denying legitimacy to arbitrary pickings in libraries/bookshops, and actively referring to the next of your 1000 books you'll ever read (out of the ~100 mil.). An alternative (sylabbi) is investigated, and programatically put in place of, to the known institutions of university reading lists, chasing references in likeable texts, and showers of recommendations."

Sylabbi is about assisting people to do tactical 🔗hypertheory in different groupations.

It outputs curated personal and group trails.

General goal: 1-2 orders of magnitude increase in theory coordinates ("noosphere").
    (5^1 / 5^2)




*** STUDY GROUPS


Everyone does ...

:
    * list of paper books:
        (and getting rid of them / "SHORTING BOOKS")
    * list of read books:
        like goodreads ?
    * consolidate e-book lib:
        F2F lib
    * questionnaire: reading habits
    * prioritization/subsets of now-planned future read:
        needs software
    * [...]


General outcomes ...
:
    * common 🔗tt-archive, as F2F:
        ~2TB seems sensible
    * organize local (or THL) study groups of people
    * curate & develop necessary software



*** GROUPATION TYPES


* "Comrades", in conviction
People with similar interests, possibly cross-disciplinary teams that know each other.

* "Neighbours", inside fields
People algorithmically determined to be fellow travellers.
Filling and expanding the spaces between different established fields

* "Schoolmates"
Didactic groups with personal interaction.

* "Friends"
People you personally know very well.







*** OPERATING LOGIC
[M!!*] reorganize  with "general outcomes"

Works subsets
### rename [!]

[!] (represent as venn)

    _____________past read
    * already read, common ground
    * already read
    _____________now reading
    * reading main
    * reading side
    _____________future reads
    * read next
    * ... asap
    * in library, to read
    * ... by neighbours
    _____________never (excluded!)
    * Intentionally (lack of value)
    * "not in this life"
    * also: books you have lesser access to (languages, etc)
    _____________totality
    * all books



Existing associations data

Associations:
    * NLP of 🔗tt-archive
    * existing association data:
        * lists @ 🔗postuni
        * GoodReads & other APIs
        * citations
    * new data:
        * personal lists and curations (UIs!)
    * [...] ?



Groupation traits
:
    * personal contact:
        + friends
        - neighbours
    * common travellers:
        + neighbours



Trail logics
:
    * with the current
    * against the current
    * [...]



Assuring reading means
"Flattening the reading list to time-space of reading"
Consider #subflow and general infrastructural question (🔗alike).
