One canonical home
Each subject has its own main page, so its explanation and updates stay together.
A connected knowledge collection
Info Sprawlings
A growing web of information about software, concepts, people, places, projects, and whatever else is worth knowing and connecting.
Knowledge with structure
More Than a List of Facts
Each individual Info Sprawling has one subject at its center, but can grow into a full article with context, examples, sources, and explicit connections to other knowledge.
Connected, not isolated
Topics, aliases, related terms, relationships, and related writing make the collection navigable as a web.
Living knowledge
Articles can be expanded and revised as the subject (and this larger overall “Info Sprawlings” knowledge system) develops.
Origin and evolution
From Folders to a Knowledge Web
Info Sprawlings began as an enormous private research system. Its present form grew from that archive—and from learning why breadth alone was not enough.
Around 2020–2021, I began making Google Drive folders and documents for almost anything I wanted to understand: people, scientific ideas, places, organisms, technologies, philosophies, religions, fictional concepts, and much more. The surviving archive contains more than 275 Word documents, ranging from substantial research to templates, topic queues, and unfinished beginnings.
For a time, I imagined Info Sprawlings and Mayvene beneath an umbrella idea called Knowledge Corp. Then someone described Info Sprawlings as a “glorified Wikipedia.” The criticism exposed a real problem: I had imagined extraordinary breadth without yet defining what would make the project distinctive, sustainable, or particularly mine. I gradually stopped working on it.
Years later, I revived it with a narrower purpose. Info Sprawlings is no longer an attempt to document everything. It is a selective, evolving web of subjects I genuinely want to research, explain, and connect; with context, structured data, related writings, and links to the rest of my work.
