Author and platform strategist Sangeet Paul Choudary has launched an interactive online companion to his book Reshuffle, allowing readers worldwide to explore its ideas about artificial intelligence, work and the knowledge economy through a digital storytelling environment.
Rather than simply reproducing the book online, the website breaks its central arguments into 27 interconnected ideas. Readers can follow thematic pathways about jobs, organisations, business ecosystems and the economy, or move freely through an interactive visual map.
The project offers an interesting example of how books and other long-form publications can be transformed into modular, non-linear digital experiences. For journalists and publishers, it also raises the question of whether investigations, archives and complex stories could increasingly be presented as explorable knowledge systems rather than as a fixed series of articles or chapters.
