The Future of Information Architecture examines issues surrounding
why information is processed, stored and applied in the way that it
has, since time immemorial. Contrary to the conventional wisdom
held by many scholars in human history, the recurrent debate on the
explanation of the most basic categories of information (eg space,
time causation, quality, quantity) has been misconstrued, to the
effect that there exists some deeper categories and principles
behind these categories of information - with enormous implications
for our understanding of reality in general. To understand this,
the book is organised in to four main parts: Part I begins with the
vital question concerning the role of information within the
context of the larger theoretical debate in the literature. Part II
provides a critical examination of the nature of data taxonomy from
the main perspectives of culture, society, nature and the mind.
Part III constructively invesitgates the world of information
network from the main perspectives of culture, society, nature and
the mind. Part IV proposes six main theses in the authors synthetic
theory of information architecture, namely, (a) the first thesis on
the simpleness-complicatedness principle, (b) the second thesis on
the exactness-vagueness principle (c) the third thesis on the
slowness-quickness principle (d) the fourth thesis on the
order-chaos principle, (e) the fifth thesis on the
symmetry-asymmetry principle, and (f) the sixth thesis on the
post-human stage.
