Meaning Discovery: The “Moment — Present — Future” Thematic Space

A Case Study

The above diagram is a case study of the Meaning Discovery Canvas.

On Oct 25, I made a new canvas for discovering Meaning.

On Dec 12, I used “Value — Truth” to replace “Individual — Collective”. I also started collecting some materials for case studies.

Today I’d like to share one case study about the “Present” and “Future” blocks.

This case study also introduces a new method of discovering thematic spaces around the Meaning Discovery Canavs and the Thematic Matrix Canvas.

1. Materials and Models

For my case studies, Materials are pieces of experiences found from my real-life events.

The Meaning Discovery Canvas is a knowledge framework or knowledge Model.

Each case study happens within a Thematic Space between Materials and the Model.

How to represent the Thematic Space?

I selected one theme from the Materials and two themes from the Model to make a thematic triangle to frame the thematic space. The diagram below is an example.
