Almost everyone on the planet, and virtually all news, information, entertainment, culture, and communications are increasingly linked through Internet metadata architecture. New temporal-topo-metaphysical relationships are emerging.<\/p>\n<p>We need new ways of <em>perceiving<\/em> these relationships, and new ways to stream data into <em>information, knowledge, and understanding<\/em>. With perhaps even the potential for <em>transforming lives<\/em> and generations, in local and global communities. Metadata, Meta stories, Meta connections.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve been considering and writing a great deal lately about the three-dimensional connectivity of metadata. I\u2019ll be posting my visual explorations of a three-dimensional perceptual browser below, section by section, over time.<\/p>\n<p>As the volume of data increases logarithmically in the kingdom we live in, metadata relationships among the three dimensions of actual time, real places, and nominal tags will tell exponentially greater numbers of stories in the years just ahead. Then looking farther into the future, consider the story yield of an infinite number of matrices created among the kingdom we live in, <em>and other kingdoms<\/em> (more about that later) of time, place, and tags. For lack of a better way of describing the direction of this three-dimensional perceptual area of inquiry at the moment, I\u2019ll call this <em>Story<\/em> to the power of <em>infinity<\/em>, perhaps expressed as:<\/p>\n<p>Kingdom x Time<sup>3<\/sup> x Place<sup>3<\/sup> x Tag<sup>3<\/sup> = Story <sup>Infinity<\/sup><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m not sure where my current exploration will lead, but I\u2019ll be trying to visualize the relationships among the dimensions of temporal-topo-metaphysical kingdoms.
