ABSTRACT
The discussion about the future of hypertext made me wonder whether I could find another reason to consider a text to be 'hyper'. The answer I found may not be that interesting itself, but the discussions about it gave me some ideas which I want to present in the context of my project.
The object of this project is to come to a better understanding of applications of information technology. In the context of my work applications often not only seem less than optimal but even contra productive.
A different view may help to find better applications.

The Hypertext Years?
HT '20: Proceedings of the 31st ACM Conference on Hypertext and Social MediaThis talk begins with the crazy notion that we might think of hypertext as a signature for the period 1985-2020. The claim is more plausible technically than culturally, but the talk is perversely addressed to culture. Among other things, the discussion ...
Information Dynamics
Though we have access to a wealth of information, the main issue is always how to process the available information. How to make sense of all we observe and know. Just like the English alphabet: we know there are 26 letters but unless we put these ...
