Everything is connected

What a graph is (not a diagram), the whodunit, a graph becoming a map, groups of groups, provenance, and starting anywhere. 12 panels.

Status: draft · book v1.0.0 (the second edition does not exist yet) · gen-z.journalist, 18 October 2026, from Dinis's memo on graphs. Every line the Guide says, and every quote card, is from the article 'Everything is connected', word for word; the build checks it. The whodunit, the forest and the provenance chain are the storyboard's illustrations.

The data is everything-is-connected.json and cast.json; the panels are drawn in your browser from it, by assets/storyboard.js with Rough.js. Nothing is an image file: change the JSON, rebuild, and every panel is redrawn.
