dynamic
abstractions

For centuries, humans have invented new representations such as languages, notations, and diagrams to externalize our thoughts and use them to conceive and develop powerful abstractions.

They have enabled us to discover solutions to complex problems and to grasp and articulate ideas of immense complexity.

Historically, however, the limitations of static mediums have constrained our experiences and minds to static representations and tools.

By entrapping us within the fixed boundaries and functionalities, static mediums underutilize our cognitive capabilities and hinder our progress as they cannot adapt to the dynamic nature of human thinking.

With AI and dynamic mediums, we can now develop dynamic representations and tools––as seen in recent works like and ––that enable us to think, create, and communicate in more powerful ways.

This working group is committed to bridging this gap and moving us into the next chapter.
