166 - Thinking of the Zettelkasten as a Machine
If you were to think about it as a function then it would look like:
Input: Information (books as primary sources)
Process: Zettelaksten
- Abstract the information (Creating the Note)
- Connect the information (Linking the Note)
Output: Organized Information - Order is the name of the game and what is important in life. For example, a car requires not only for all the parts (information) to be there but for them also to be ordered in a specific way. This is why the organizational component (latticework of note sequences) of a zettelkasten is important.
