Random #toolsforthought ideas:

A markup tool with the Adobe Photoshop interface

Editable layers with export function, freeform drawing, MD and block level support, all on one canvas

The search bar/function for my knowledge graph but as a standalone app on my laptop

So I can search for blocks immediately from the desktop

A digital whiteboard in my house that detects all artefacts on it (drawings, post it’s, etc) and automatically updates an online canvas so I can ‘take’ the whiteboard with me on the go and present my findings to colleagues ‘physically’

A pen that doubles as a voice recorder, connects to WiFi to send those recordings somewhere and gets it transcribed

Optional: interacts with the things written by the pen as metadata (needs scanner maybe?)

A digital display I can put on my wall that pulls up blocks from a specific page at random, so I can pull up insights around the house or have reminders/task list somewhere dedicated (like a Raspberry for thought!)

A service where a coach/health consultant collects your health analytics/data and designs a routine/diet for you at peak thinking performance

In parallel with the quality of your thinking, you work together to achieve the highest level of synthesis through physical changes

Twitter but with a public/private note function as a single toggle

Public: social media, interactive etc

Private: personal notes, drafts, etc.

Goal: recognize that conversations are merely synonyms for thinking, it all depends if you’re talking to yourself vs others

A Country for Thought

How would that look like? What are the required structures for governance?
How do you earn the right to be a citizen?

Building the actual Illuminati at this point

An immutable knowledge graph as the basis for a newfound religion

All metadata is tracked, measured, and as close to its initial objective history as possible

It would have a literal [[GENESIS BLOCK]]

eSports but for TFTs

It’s two research teams going against each other, remixing blocks, bringing in PDFs

And later on they have a pitch to present their findings and motions, and then debate with each other’s solutions

WHILE THE TEAM IS RESEARCHING ARGUMENTS IN REAL TIME

A boutique agency to help with making your graph look fabulous

Because you better spice up your thought aesthetics like DAYUM

A scouter that’s always connected to my knowledge graph, responds to voice commands and takes pictures to upload directly

Also quite sturdy so I don’t have to worry about dropping it

A physical ‘book’ made out of ultra thin LCD material in the inside so you can replicate a reading experience, but bring an entire library of books with you on the go

With optional weights, leather bound covers, etc. to make it feel like a book

And all marginalia gets uploaded

An app of my knowledge graph, conversations, recordings etc. As a museum:

If anyone needs my advice, history, thoughts and more even after my death, I can still serve and become a beacon of hope for them

My thoughts will never leave humanity

Achieving [[CULTURAL IMMORTALITY]]

A boutique translation agency focusing on knowledge projects that benefit humanity

They know every language AND know the right semantics for knowledge work

Trust them to do the documentation for anything and distribute it to every language around the world 😊

A search app that uses OCR to recognize text, objects, etc. And searches for similar results in your knowledge graph

Pull out keywords through intra-knowledge SEO and from there decide if you want to include it in

You can also use your observations to curate relevant blocks
