Weighting Logic (Top 10 Summary)
The top 10 account for the project’s primary DNA. They are not equal: Knowledge Organization and Infrastructure Studies sit at the absolute center (how the field is built and maintained), followed closely by Conceptual Art (methods of self-reference and naming) and Media Archaeology (historical layering + technical materiality). Architecture Theory and Epistemology provide the foundational operators, while STS and Systems Theory supply analytical frameworks. The remaining weight spreads across broader adjacent territories. This map is dynamic — new layers (especially the May 2026 texts) continue to strengthen ties to Knowledge Organization, Media Archaeology, Cosmotechnics, and Graph-Based Knowledge Systems.
