Professor Chan’s tour of how he uses Roam (notes below video) that made me jump:

• academic background
• “best Zettelkasten in Roam so far”
• “how to effectively synthesize ideas and generate novel theories”
• INQUIRY: how do you know what problems I am good at solving?
• INQUIRY: how do we get people to synthesize knowledge together?
• knowledge work is processing your notes
• books, papers graduate into Zettels
• “haven’t figured out how to export from Roam in a ‘clean way’”
• (Sensemaking)
• “primary goal is to generate new stuff” (not search!)
• “learning process is very valuable”
• “don’t worry about migrating everything” [from previous systems]
