Wish there was a good way to turn mind-map style nonsequential thinking into a publishable medium. Unfortunately, "reading" is a strongly sequential behavior, so writing is necessarily serialization. Even when the tools are good, like Prezi, you still have to serially narrate

Publishing dreams?
Technically still far away, but should be achievable.

Not really. I built exactly this product at Xerox 10 years ago. Sadly it deadpooled :(

There is this thing called a "web" with "hyperlinks" that may help you publish a map…

I think non-fiction graphic novels can be used this way. Part of Unflattening by explores this.

My greatest ambition is to teach computers to run CRUD operations on concepts instead of data.

Cmon you know that reality is the opposite - distilling the nonsequential nonlinear random universe into sufficiently concentrated narrativium to bring about the conscious singularity...

We're stuck with the serialization problem.
The mind stores memories and generates possible futures in the form of stories, like walks through a landscape.
Mortality limits, not only in the length (one life end-to-end) but also in the width (one life at a time).

This was the precise problem I got into sharing this mind map *as* my sole visual aid for a very important talk that totally tanked due to nonlinear/serial incompatibility (hilariously meta given the talk🤦♂️)
