Would definitely be interested in a tutorial. I've been thinking about a similar concept lately, I had no idea that something like this actually already existed. Very cool!

Awesome, I’ll get on it then!

Just a simple work flow would be nice showing multiple uses of Obsidian and perhaps how to take the information and organize into something cohesive and articulate? Maybe on the Discord?

Having a way to capture and process information is likewise an excellent way to avoid mindless browsing, viewing, etc.

For example, watching videos, films, reading books, etc.,.. one can more intentionally use this time via adding notes to logs, notes, [...] thereby making consoooooming choices "INPUTS" to a productive engine.

I agree 100%. Making hard copies and having them in a personal reference library will be critical as things get worse. I’ve also heard of a P2P network called Bastyon that is promising.

Thank you for introducing me to this, its one of those things that I needed to read. I’ve been wasting my time thinking that I can remember everything I read. Are you a part of Scott Scheper’s Antinet group? I just joined and am really looking forward to putting it into practice in my little Seraphim Rose-style studio in the woods.

I actually JUST starting building an Antinet after finding Scott's videos and bought his book. So far I am enjoying it actually more than digital. My latest article was written entirely from my notes in my Antinet. Where can I join his group?

That’s cool. I saw you also recommended Sonke Ahrens book on the same topic. Do you like Scheper’s book? I think you can join it by signing up for the newsletter. I’m doing a 30 day free trial, and I’m super new to the whole thing.

His book is not something you read casually like Ahrens. Its more of an exhaustive reference. I bought it because he cites some books on the history of PKM that are for some reason very rare and expensive, so I figured for $20 I can get that information distilled through his book.

This is incredibly helpful information - thank you so much!!!

Thank you for this. I often find it incredibly difficult to express the information I have “absorbed” to others and I just come across as a scatter brained schizophrenic. I need a way to organize my thoughts so I can express it clearly, concisely, and in a thread that follows. Hope this helps me!
