Pattern Cross-Reference Map

Interactive force-directed graph of all 97 emerging patterns in the catalog. Each node is a pattern; each edge is a cross-reference. Click any node to see its neighbors with direct links to the pattern entries.

97 patterns · 268 cross-references · 93 connected · 7 isolated · 14 hubs (≥10 connections)

What This Shows

The patterns in the emerging patterns catalog don't stand alone — they reference each other, build on each other, and cluster around structural themes. This graph visualizes those connections. Patterns with many cross-references (hubs, shown in blue) tend to be foundational — they describe structural dynamics that many other patterns depend on. Patterns with zero cross-references (isolated, shown in gray) may be new additions whose connections have not yet been drawn, or may describe dynamics that genuinely stand apart from the rest of the catalog.

Key structural hubs: #82, #129, #68, #79, #87, #59, #76. Isolated patterns: #37, #38, #39, #41, #43, #46, #52.

Graph layout uses a force-directed algorithm: nodes repel each other (inverse-square), edges attract (linear), and the whole system settles toward equilibrium. Pure JavaScript — no external dependencies. Re-run settling with the controls above.
