Compass Universe. Presentation.

This is an opening article about lore and exploration of fictional worlds

Still this navigation form may find an application in information structure, semantic search and keywords concepts.

I explore the ways I take to create Brunaria Path visual fiction through the concepts of Analogy bubbles, Universe artefacts and their interactions.

I defined two methods, which describe my creation process: practical and symbolic

  • A practical method is about tips and ideas that allow applying minimum knowledge about fictional Universe and transform it in advantage creative forms. 
  • A symbolic method is about analogies and associations that inspired me, and the way I transform them into a fictional world. These trails and links point to the sources of my creative process and tips of encrusting them through a fictional form.

This series of articles come from my ideas of a balance between relativity of perception and indexation directory of sources in a way we may explore or interact with information.

On the one hand, relativity of perception creates a new meaning above the existent one or ignoring the existent one. On the other hand, a directory of sources forms trails which points to origins, tradition, archetypes or, links resources (in case of a digital world). It is a hermeneutic dilemma or thesis in some way.

Narration practice tips also point to this: not tell a story – show it. The idea of artefacts and their discovery comes from no needs to explain everything at once or at the beginning. Moreover, what was explained once may be revisited and retransformed by other point of view.
