Institute of Diagram Studies

This page displays an are.na user’s channels, grouped and categorized using their custom index key. Enter the link to any are.na profile or group above to view/link to their index.

The tool creates groups by matching special characters at the beginning of channel names, and then looks for a valid index keys in the profile bio and any linked blocks (can also be linked manually in the display options). A parseable key usually looks something like this:

. trains of thought
; notes and research
= channels driving a specific point of view
> areas of interest
… reading and research materials
› pattern recognition
_ design references & resources

You can also separate the keys and labels using " = " or ": ".
