window

The traditional concept of a window—a container for a self-contained program—is a relic of legacy computing paradigms like WIMP. By enforcing rigid boundaries, current software keeps our digital items siloed and isolated. I envision a future where we transcend this limitation, moving toward views that allow us to pull data out of these containers to create cohesive, interrelated environments.

We must replace the concept of windows as application-centric silos with a model that prioritizes the graph of related data, allowing items to exist and be manipulated across different context levels regardless of their origin.
