Why do I get the feeling a black market for access to premium graphs might come up in the future #roamcult 🤔
At first I was entertaining the idea of figure revivals: public graphs of famous figures who passed away, and authors collaborate to put their notes, findings discoveries, etc.
But I thought: what would be the price of that graph?
Einstein = $200mil graph for example?
Access to a graph is also another avenue for transactions
So a black market for either access or acquiring private graphs would be possible wouldn't it?
Who wouldn't want to own Einstein's brain as a Roam graph?
We're already seeing this with Codex Leceister being bought/sold for auction.
Now I'm curious about people buying and selling brains 🤯
But anyways, 'tis the ponderings of someone thinking about @RoamResearch all the time, even if away from the laptop (and stuck in this heavy rain outside)

🧐 I have a feeling we explored this question in the convo with @beauhaan on the relationship between identity and note taking
We write to find ourselves, idolize those who have already done so, and will fight for our semantics and systems because really it’s us in written form
1/ Learn a language with a completely different structure. Recognise implicit and explicit meanings, contexts, and forms.
Apply that understanding to your semantics. Your notes are the language of perception of the world
2/ Watch a kid play with toys. If they stop using it as intended, they will imagine 20 ways to have fun with it.
Do the same. Your notes don’t have to stick to the same framework, line of thinking, and angle all the time. They are fleeting toys designed to occupy your time
3/ Record yourself saying your notes out loud.
Outliners are designed to ‘format’ connections we inherently understand on our screen. Saying them out loud makes them explicit, tangible.
What if in that moment, your words change and drift off into something unwritten? CHASE IT
In today's episode of playing with CSS, oh god what did I do oh god @CatoMinor3 😂
My CSS chops aren't good enough to make the ref section a 'pseudo-window' where I can quickly look at it by scrolling horizontally to the left hmm...gonna play around with the numbers a bit
This looks not bad actually...I can live with it
Just had some problems with main page width - now I'm stuck on always full if I'm willing to stick with this layout from now on hmm
Introducing a new project: Roam Dervish! A twist to the standard @RoamResearch coaching.
If you want to elevate your workflows, thinking, and converse with your notes on a deeper level with guidance, you've come to the right place!
There are two types of coaching shared below:
1 - General Roam Coaching
If you're in need of upgrading your workflow, this is for you 🚀
If you need workflow advancements, feature deep dives, Roam-related ideas fleshed out, this is it!
The goal is to develop your own unique Roam! More in this vid:
They stem from both my show (RoamFM) as well as the growing YouTube playlist + livestreams where I think out loud in public and show how I use the tool.
I explore the relationship between our information diet (what you take in intentionally/as a default), semantics and more for note-taking purposes, because what we perceive is what we take note of!
Next is taking the above and applying it to a digital context, in my case it's #roam !
How do you prepare your notes for recall? What does it mean to write notes primed for integration? Do you consider context-dependent insight (h/t @cortexfutura)?
