'''Quick guide (IMPORTANT):''' when you see “{{def|this|ex1}}”, this means a new concept (DEF = definition) is being introduced in the narrative. It’s important to remember the concept in its context (i.e., the phrase that contained the definition). | '''Quick guide (IMPORTANT):''' when you see “{{def|this|ex1}}”, this means a new concept (DEF = definition) is being introduced in the narrative.

The reference can be in another related form (e.g., {{ref|repeatedly|ex2}} would still refer to {{def|repetition|ex2}}). '''You have to keep in mind the definition (and its context) while reading the reference'''. To help you remember, you can click on the reference, and the browser will take you back to the original definition and highlight it. | ||
The goal of the reconstruction is to make you see objective content differently, using just a wider attention span and sensory memory. '''If you don’t make the effort to memorize or at least follow the hyperlinks to refresh your memory, the reconstruction won’t be much more than a linear content walkthrough'''. It is not possible to read a reconstruction casually, because no care was taken to allow that scenario.

It is not possible to read a reconstruction casually, because no care was taken to allow that scenario. The process of following the narrative can be complex based on the content, not gonna lie. Instant gratification is not really possible ([[Book/Conceptual_Reconstructionism_and_its_Social_Ecosystem#Instant_consumption_as_a_part_of_the_culture_of_the_average_value._The_spoiler_phenomenon._The_unspecific_effect,_and_its_relation_to_stale_art_and_utilitarian_art.|read more about it]]). If it was, we wouldn’t need reconstruction. | ||
The terms of the reconstruction are purely referential. '''They don’t mean anything if not matched to the content'''. To match references to textual content, quotes are provided. '''Bold lettering''' is used to make the match more precise. References to visuals are made clearer by annotated pictures.

To match references to textual content, quotes are provided. '''Bold lettering''' is used to make the match more precise. References to visuals are made clearer by annotated pictures. For music reconstructions, you need to use the audio player (the references will be highlighted while the music plays). The arrows next to the references open a menu that can be used to replay the matching audio segments. If you don’t match the reconstruction to the music, then it is just a long unreadable metaphor. | ||
