“‘Information architecture is nothing but an elegant hack.’ Christina Wodtke didn’t say that, but liked the quote enough to nab the name for her excellent IA blog (she’s still looking for the source; let her know if you’re the one). Many of you already know Christina from her participation in the SIGIA-L list, from the Bay Area IA group, her involvement at the last ASIS&T Summit… she seems to be just about anywhere IA is happening, except right here in the ACIA (that is, until now…).”

“The wunderkammer is a cabinet of wonders. Walk into a well-heeled household in the middle of the 17th century, and you would see proudly displayed a glass cabinet filled with an odd assortment of devices, say a mammoth tooth, a hat from India, and perhaps a jar of exotic insects from China. The wunderkammer was a collection of objects, a trigger to the memory, a device that let the mind wander to faraway places.”
