Subject: Fw: Maps, Space and Other Metaphors for Metadata

 
This on-line 'zine
http://mappa.mundi.net/
has, in its archives, this article
http://mappa.mundi.net/features/metadata/
which, I think, gives a rather profound introduction to much of the logic behind RDF, Topic Maps, and a lot of other stuff we think about.  I believe the the 'zine and links derived from its pages are of value to those of us who want to explore the deeper issues associated with our interests.
 
Another paper
http://mappa.mundi.net/cartography/Maps/
is called A Shared Reality.  This paper talks to the cultural aspects of maps and the visual experience.
 
Scanning another paper -- Memory Palaces
http://mappa.mundi.net/cartography/Palace/
leads to this fellow:
http://www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~skoyles/
John Robert Skoyels, who describes himself as *A dawn to dusk knowledge junkie*.  If you read nothing else of his (including two online books), read his *who am I* and *my story*.
 
Another link (I've only scratched the surface here) from mappa.mundi.net is
http://www.id.iit.edu/visiblelanguage/Feature%20Articles/ArtofMemory/ArtofMemoryPt4.html
is The Art of Memory, which talks about the importance of the visual aspect of hyperlinked spaces.
 
Cheers
Jack
