Notes:
-New graphic idea for helping developer understand the process of working with data – almost like a construction worker. (Please see scans in photo gallery)
Inputs: Make a list of known inputs. What do you get or start with?
Tools: Make a list of tools that you use to get the job or project done.
Outputs: What did you make or get as an output?
Imagine a funnel to slowly take a bigger raw input and get it ready for an output.

-Elaborating on the new graphic idea to help developers with the concepts of working with data… (Please see scans in the photo gallery)
Mini Version:
Inputs: Start with?
Tools:
Outputs: Goal or end with?
Funnel and reverse funnel effect – mix and blend as needed

-Bigger Version:
(Please see scans in photo gallery – lots of ideas)
Input Types:
- JSON – var1: value
- XML – XZX
- Text – “something as text”
- Mixed Data
- Objects or structures

- List
- Other/Custom
- As a note… data could be any of the inputs – all kinds of stuff.

- 3D – Time, Resources, Space
Start simple and work up from there
-I’m running out of room… I’ll have to put this on its own page – these are just ideas.
-The goal is to mix and blend as needed!
-I’d love to add graphics or icons to all of these inputs, outputs, and tools.
-See adilas university and search for “foundation” to get some good results.
-As a small note… You start with known values that are simple… As you mix and blend and as things get more complicated… Things always seem to trend to “other” or “custom”. The word custom usually requires things like settings and permissions. Settings and permissions lead into our 3D World Building Model of Time, Resources, and Space. (3D World Building Concepts: X = Time, Y = Resources, & Z = Space)
-Everything is inter-connected.

-Permissions and settings may need to change over time. Think of how God works with His children… He places them in certain circumstances and gives them talents and trials. As time goes on and as cause and effect actions take place, God is willing to virtually change permissions and settings as needed. Change doesn’t have to be up or down. It could also mean front to back, left to right, diagonal, add or subtract, multiply, divide, etc. Granular or micro controls. God loves His children and helps us learn and grow along the way. I know He loves us!
-This is a design idea that was submitted by my brother. My brother sketched this design while listening to part of an adilas intern training class.
3D Calendar Idea by my brother:
- Imagine days of the month as 3D cubes or blocks:
- (Please see sketches on scans in photo galleries)
- Month:
o Week 1:
o Week 2:
o Pretend it went from 1-7: S, M, T, W, Th, F, S, 8-14: S, M, T, W, Th, F, S and so on… Days and months
Each day could be broken down into 24 hours. Each hour is a mini block.
- Break each day into 24 hour blocks – single day
- Take each day and block and expand it into 24 smaller blocks… Hours
o This could go 0-11 am, 12-11 pm or 12-23 if on a 24 hour block
- Days and hours
Each hour could be broken down into 60 minutes. Each minute could be a small block of time.
- Example: Monday, May 9th at 10:00am – single hour block of time
- Break each hour into 60 minute blocks.
Each minute could be broken down into 60 seconds.
- Break each minute into 60 second blocks
- Single minute
- Minutes & seconds
- Example: Monday, May 9th at 10:45 am
It could go deeper but I think the point is made. Basically, a 3D calendar that could show any level of detail. I showed my model going from months, days, hours, minutes, and seconds. The model could also go up if needed to things like: months, quarters, years, decades, centuries, millenniums. Whatever you want. Think levels both big and small.
