Description Text

information is composable. It’s constantly being combined and recombined into new things [1]

turns browsing inside out, always showing not the links that are on the page (directing away from it), but the ones that link towards this page. show where this page is embedded in and allows reverse browsing.
makes apparent that information is composable.

Tracing Networks Backwards is a browser game based on wikimedia. Its interface displays all wiki pages that link towards the currently open one and by that renders visible the bits an information is composed of.
Outputting the traced path into a graph shifts the attention from the clicked nodes (links) towards their edges (connections), and allows us to notice relations.

Cookbook

still open:

make website operate w/ joystick
connect output to graphviz
1. then set up w/ printer
website details:
1. interface details (title, info, style)
2. when printing - at what point?
3. how to start (without keyboard) -- give options/ select or choose one fix
