190316 [Testing abstract concept map]-[we don't own our partner ever]

Short: I drew this concept map, just for testing the real limit and potential of concept map. I want to see if concept map can [expressing]-[convey] very complex, highly abstract [concepts]-[knowledge system].

Example of real concept map

I pick this [image]-[story] (not mine, but from other people), just because is is highly abstract, to serve as a good testing real data. I don't specially in love with poems or literature, though I don't dislike them at the same time.

So, if I can break a complex story down to many small pieces of concepts (nodes), and connections, and explicitly denote some context scope number (only at place really need this), I believe, any story can be describe with the form of concept map, and reader will do comprehension themselves. But for honest, text is still more condense to [express]-[convey] same amount of data.

For more example of concept map, you can see 190310 Brave New World study note # 190310m200408.

About concept map

What is concept map: A [map]-[graphs] using nodes and connections to express a story, idea, complex context, knowledge ... anything you can think about. A simple example - Apple --is--> Red --is--> Color. See here for detail information about concept map.
Node (bule circle): A concept. Text inside each node is just a symbol to represent the real concept. Beside text (as symbol), another common symbol type is picture. But since text is way easier to made than picture, we don't use picture in concept map.
Connection (arrowed line, or non-arrowed line):
1. About: A connection connect 2 concept together.
2. Connection with arrow: Arrow means the direction of description for example Apple --is--> Red, it make sense to say "apple is red", but not "red is apple", because the direction matters when 2 nodes (concept) are connecting together, in this case.
3. Connection without description: Not all connection need description. For example Monkey --can--> Climb --=--> High, the connection between concept (node) "climb" and "high", don't need description (but need arrow to explain direction), in this case, the character = is used, it means "there is no need to have description on this connection" (nothing to do with "they are equal").
4. "context" scope:
  1. About: The number shown on connection denote the different scope of context. Usually, the scope of context depends on the whole story, it could big to across multiple nodes, or could small to just happens only between 2 adjacent nodes, anyway, I don't specify the scope explicit on every connection (for simplicity reason). When reader is reading, they will find the right context to fit the story themselves. // However, in some case, there are different context fighting with each other, or overlapping, in these cases, I have to make it clear, I will use number to [marking]-[grouping] differt context, so it won't be confused by user, since one node might belong to two context at the same time.
  2. Example "6: description": 2 nodes is under context#6.
  3. Example "7: description": 2 nodes is under context#7.
  4. Example "(6)7: description": 2 nodes is under context#7. And it is related to the whole context#6, not the previous node (where the arrow starts).
  5. Example "(6): description": 2 nodes don't have explicit context. And it is related to the whole context#6, not the previous node (where the arrow starts).
