Modeling Information

The appeal of scientific visualisations is luring.

Elaborate data, lexical choice and graphs purport knowledge, complexity and power.

Yet, data, text and science are a continuous process of modelling influenced by society and limitations of ratio.

Framing

Framing an omnipresent subtle process which makes features salient and marginalizes others
Framing contextualizing objects and events with regard to our cultural values, moral evaluations, conventions, schemata
Framing that clear-cut taping into our knowledge and past experiences
Framing the construction of coherence and causality
Framing the reduction of complexity, the formula of mediation, our agenda of concerns
Frameselection encoding coding rendering meaningful
personalizing, dramatizing, trivializing
echoes of the past- layering of meaning

The topology of framing, of multilayered, meaningful reality:

Fading into nothingness

Look inside

All is but a dream within a dream -Edgar Allan Poe
