| summary | This website outlines a system centered around the “item” as a fundamental unit of computing, aiming for greater flexibility and user control. Key features include universal data portability, reference containers, foldable views, and fluid workspaces. It emphasizes creating systems for computer literacy and evolvability, with components like automated actions, notifications, and item change logs. The design incorporates a network of “item” interfaces and explores concepts like semantic zoom and gestural view construction. Essentially, it proposes a radically different approach to computing, prioritizing user-defined organization and adaptability through a core “item” primitive. |
