The elements of the narrative are usually related in such a way, that they form separate clusters, which are distinct from one another and yet are connected globally. This allows the reader to read through the whole structure very quickly and efficiently in only a few iterations. Moreover, no matter where one begins, the structure will be traversed in a very similar way. The final narrative comes across as coherent and relevant because it will always mention several important, but very different topics in a way that makes sense. Based on this approach, we created...
