mmx – Memex and beyond
This project revisits Memex, a hypothetical knowledge storage that Vannevar Bush suggested in 1945 and traces its trajectory in the perspective of interaction design. While the pursuit of Memex on technology’s side shows its fruits today, it is still unproven if today’s digital artifacts properly realize Bush’s insight into how human think. This project suggests mmx, a conceptual system that supports thought process in non-intrusive augmented vision.
Visualizing human thinking process as the linkage of “Knowledge Nodes,” mmx helps tracking, linking, rearranging, and sharing of Knowledge Nodes to amplify personal and collective knowledge.
