Your Hypercontext

A taxonomy of the castle: what you might store, room by room, and what each room should never give away.


Humans are going to have whole castles full of context. Most people have never inventoried theirs, because until now there was nowhere useful to put it. That changes the moment your context can make any service excellent on contact: suddenly every well-kept room in the castle is compounding utility.

Each article in this section takes one category and answers the same four questions:

  1. What is it? The category, concretely.
  2. Why store it? What it unlocks when it is captured and curated.
  3. What does a service legitimately need? The sliver, by example.
  4. What never leaves home? The boundary inside the category.

The rooms

This taxonomy is evolving. Categories will split, merge, and grow as the thinking matures.
