How to reveal the main topics in the positive and in the negative customer reviews in order to see what makes them happy and what makes them dislike the product. …

In this case study we demonstrate how you can build mind maps from text in a truly rhizomatic way and much faster than with the standard mind mapping tools. You can start writing and let your ideas flow. InfraNodus will visualize them for you and identify the patterns and the gaps within them, so you can develop your discourse further. …

Based on the text variability modulation technique, we propose a technique for conducting an interview. It is implemented into our InfraNodus text network visualization tool, so you can try it out on a real conversation, a Zoom talk, or a brainstorming session. …

Modulating variability in a text or a conversation can have an interesting effect on its dynamics. A writer will never get stuck, a conversation will always be interesting, a discourse will stay ecological at its core. We propose an approach based on panarchy, embracing diversity and homogeneity at the same time, as applied to discursive practices.…

Using text network visualization we can convert any text into a musical score, which can be used to play music live. This case study demonstrates how this can be done in a VR space.…

When we learn a new language, context is very important. Text network graphs can be used to help students learn how to use the new words and phrases in context, by making the new connections between the disjointed parts of the graph.…

In our increasingly interconnected world the notion of mind viral immunity becomes very important. It is already difficult enough to deal with the multitude of inputs coming at us from every direction. What happens when their number increases exponentially? How can we protect ourselves from everything being available at any moment of time? Network epidemiology frameworks can help. Diversity is the key.…

Most of the artificial intelligence research today is based on the notion of the mind. Computational models, neural networks... Brain seems to be in the center of attention and mind seems to be the Thing. But what about the body? And what is the role it can play in the development of artificial intelligence?…

Proposition for the new body/mind operating system based on variability, fluid dynamics, and the embodied understanding of a metaphor. …

The effects of warfare are often compartmentalized to the kind of imagery that is merely shocking and sensational. Warfare is then (mis)understood as a kind of violent and destructive exercise only. How can we rethink our understanding of conflict / war and learn something from the dynamics that it produces?…

Recommender systems are the algorithms that determine what content we read, which products we buy, which movies we watch. However, most of them are based on similarity and lock us into "filter bubble" where we see only what we expect. In this article we discuss how to bring in more serendipity into the algorithms.…
