A Zettelkasten Explodes Thought: Rhizomes, Intertextuality, & Ideative Pillaging

What I&#x27;d love to see from this Zettel Renaissance is just a dirt-simple VSC (LOCAL! PLEASE! STOP SENDING ALL MY CUSTOMER&#x27;S DATA INTO THE UNIVERSE) plugin that goes into my working directory, sucks up filenames, tokenizes keywords, then throws them all into an undirected graph with Graphviz (or PlantUML or Vega or Mermaid or Kroki or whatever), with a regex filter on the nodes.<p>I feel like it&#x27;s one of those things that should be all over the place, but the implementations I&#x27;ve fooled with[1] with have been sharply limited in some way or other. I guess I should stop being a freeloader, put on my big boy shorts and have a go.<p>[1] TiddlyWiki, Dendron, Foam, Zettlr, LogSeq

I kept wanting to like Zettelkasten but I just don’t. My personal conclusion: it’s optimized for shoveling out content. I don’t want to do that. I want a personal wiki that forms a web of links of things I want to remember, not a serialization of notes I took on well-defined subjects.<p>Aside: I’d bought Ahrens’s “How to Take Smart Notes” and was so disappointed. I thought it was going to be a how-to for getting up and running. It was a why-to about something I’d already decided to try. It could also have been a quarter the size with the same amount of information. I got the impression that the author put a ton of work into his own Zettelkasten and wanted to wring every word out of it he possibly could.

Love seeing Deleuze and Guattari&#x27;s concepts getting explored in different disciplines.<p>I find that CCRU&#x27;s writings intersect technofuturism with the concepts from Thousand Plateaus in a really rewarding way.

I mean this politely, but this is really difficult to read. It seems to just jump headfirst into stream-of-consciousness style buzzwords, and presumes a lot of background from the reader. I tried to follow, but I honestly cannot tell if this is a legitimate thought piece, satire, or AI-generated.
