Book Visualization
The Epistemic Cartographer is a high-fidelity deconstruction engine that transforms literary works into interactive "knowledge topologies." It utilizes a "Recursive Branching Protocol" to map the semantic structure of a book across radial layers.
Key Functional Pillars:
-
Structural Decomposition: Powered by Gemini 3 Pro, the app deconstructs any book into a dense hierarchy of 80+ nodes, categorized into specific epistemic types like Mechanisms, Principles, Implications, and Examples.
-
Radial Cartography: A custom D3.js visualization maps these elements onto concentric rings representing the book's progression (Chapters 1–6) around a central core of primary themes.
-
Visual Synthesis: When a node is selected, Gemini 2.5 Flash Image generates a minimalist "archival artifact" photograph representing the abstract concept.
-
Archive & Registry: Features a persistent storage system (localStorage) with a "Lattice Grid" library view to manage and revisit previous architectural projections.
-
Interactive Controls: Includes an interactive legend to filter specific structural layers and a "Manifesto Panel" that provides formal, archival context for each mapped territory.
Aesthetic Direction:
The UI employs a "Swiss-Archival" aesthetic: monochrome, high-contrast, utilizing Instrument Serif for elegance and IBM Plex Mono for technical precision, overlaid on a subtle grid-point canvas.
