MAIN-ZK

The MAIN Zettelkasten is a collection of learning from various Fields of Study and Research

as described in the "Outline of Academic Disciplines".

I created my own arbitrary Numbering System & Guide to follow so I can keep

all "zettels" or index cards for all subjects in their correct locations in

Alpha-Numerical Order for the Complete List of Disciplines and Sub-Disciplines.

I said "arbitrary" because you might use a different numbering setup...it's all up to you!!

The Major Categories are broken down as follows:

It's your "Second Brain", made up of your own thoughts, commentary, studies, etc.​​

Scott Scheper elaborated on it in a video:

" You will find over time that the Antinet ZK will start "talking back" to you...it has a life of its own."

 

So True! It happens almost EVERY time I open a drawer, pick out a card or cards,

and see where it all leads!

Found this while internet surfing:

"​Introducing the Antinet Zettelkasten" - Mar 25th, 2022  by Scott P. Scheper 

 

(Q) Should one give their Zettelkasten a Name?

(A) Yes,,,why not...you named your pets, right??

I call my Zettelkasten "Johnny 5" because, like the robot,

it is always showing me that it..."...Needs more INPUT ! " 

 

< COMING SOON >

I am compiling examples of how to fill out the cards, link them to other cards

via "addresses", using an A-Z Index for orderly referencing and other techniques

for each discipline in their own right.
