Thanks Artem, the idea of self drawing the mind maps with mostly pictures seems very reasonable! I love how you always refer to why you recommend certain things because of how our brain processes information.
I discovered your channel so randomly but BOY am I happy I did! Such a great job! Subscribed and I look forward to see what you will do next.
great explanation of the benefits and best practice, thanks!
Boy, you are an awesome teacher. It's impressive
thank you , i learn now "draw pictures" but "less words" put into my mindmap. I have seen several mind map teaching video here and you are one the most educational one with great clarity.
How can you use mindmaps in studying math ?
great explanation man, I actually grasped the concept better than all the other videos on mind - maps!!
So well explained, definitely something I can utilise in my learning. Keep working on newer videos.
Thank you for making this video I've been recently using mind maps for nursing school. Your video help simplify the process for me.
Such a great video! Thanks!
Thanks for this. I had to scroll so far down to get past all the videos trying to sell courses and find a video that had actual techniques you can implement.
Thank you for all this wonderful knowledge! I'd love to see you do a Ted Talk someday!!!
Great video thank you !
thank u very much, well explained
Thanks to my "recommendations", which brought me such great content. It was very exiting to watch the video about my favourite trick for memorization. But it has always been a great challenge for me to figure out, how to write complex concepts, like a cellular automata, in image format. How can we deal with such difficulties?
Perhaps this is a matter of figurative thinking and level of imagination, but it would be interesting to hear your opinion:)
P.s
Don't get me wrong, but what happened with that gorgeous bass guitar, which was decorating the background in your previous video?
Thank you, Anya!
I think it depends on how well you know the concept itself.
Suppose, you are drawing a mind map on complexity, and you want to include cellular automata as one of the “leaves”. Then, if you are for example Stephen Wolfram himself, and you know every little detail about cellular automata, it’s enough for you to draw just a tiny icon resembling it, and you would immediately remember everything about that concept. Since its structure is rooted so deeply in your long term memory.
If you are, however, only beginning to learn cellular automation, then the concept may be too complex for you to handle it as one single entity. So, I’d first create a separate mind map for it. For example about what cellular automata are, their properties, classification, etc.
That way you begin to create *hierarchical* (or nested) mind maps (when the entry of a top-level mind map is so complex that it is in fact a mind map of its own)
This is a really great question, and the answer comes down to the notion of *chunking* . It is actually the topic I’ve been dreaming to make a video about, but I’m not sure whether it’s the right time yet. Let me know if you are interested!
P.S. I recorded the footage for this video in an anti-café, hence the different background. But don’t worry, hopefully, the guitar will be back for the next video ;)
@@ArtemKirsanov I'd be very interested in that video
Nice video!1 Would have been even better if you could have shown the tips via a mind map :)
Thanks so much!
Hi Artem, great channel. How do you combine Zettlekasten with Mind Maps in your workflow (I mean, if you do)? Thank you!
Cool. What about C-maps? They have slightly different structures but yhe same objective. Which do you consider more effective? Or do you think they have different uses? (for example mind maps for learning a concept, and c-maps for testing your knowledge or similar)
I'd like to see how you go about finding and making connections between the nodes as well as what information you would put in an srs system and which system you would use.
Great video Bruh
Thankssssssssss a lot, you saved me lots of bucks…. And it is true that we only need a pen and a paper to start with mind mapping
Cool video
Did you try to you use it only for note taking or exam revision?
This video is sooo awesome - thanks a lot! I started to make my MBA and I have to say, I really struggle a lot to memorize everything, even if I understand it. Often I have to learn 10-15 words which are important for one single part, and have to learn 200 - 300 Pages... How can I use mind maps to learn these details? Just writing the words down? And how do you test your self, that you repeat everything in the right way, and don't interpret ate some pictures in the wrong way?
And what happens with the details that one needs to get good marks in the exams? Would you use Anki cards for that or you rather draw them on the mind map chunking in small agrupations?
Artem I love your stuff! I'm also grinding on UA-cam and it takes awhile. I need to remind myself to be patient, keep producing content and stay optimistic. You should too! I think with time you'll blow up - good luck!
Thanks! I definitely needed to hear that.
Good luck to you too!
Yeh definitely gonna blow up this stuff is so good, think I've watched it all with your research paper and neural manifold video multiple times
Great Video! Recommendations for some topics:
-)Is there any difference for the learning process between taking notes by hand on a piece of paper/or on an iPad and digital notetaking with laptop/PC.
-) Music and studying: does it help/or distract. In which way does it influence the learning session.
I think you mentioned it already in one of your videos that you yourself listen to lofi music during your study sessions, so it‘s maybe a topic that you yourself are interested in to find out more.
All the best,
Arijan
Thank you! I’ll definitely consider it
@@ArtemKirsanov Thanks for your videos. Can you PLEASE share how do you not get bored or tired or distracted readinf papers? And not having to study so many hours on end? Thanks and really hope to hear you.
Thanks
I wonder how this can work for studying history, is it possible? or there is a better technique for history learning?
For my medical exams we have to write 10mark essays.can you show an example of exactly how you comprehend a new data into a mindmap
@Artem Kirsanov can you share the slides used in this video please🙂
where does text processing you read is happening vs same content of text but heard someone talking.
what program did you use?
Thank you for bringing mind maps into the conversation! any mind mapping online tool that you recommend? there are tones out there and I'd love to hear your opinion on this :)
Please make a video of making an organic Buzan style mind map by hand. There is very less videos of this kind anywhere on the Internet except in paid courses.
Most people resort to software which I don't prefer.
what app arebunusing in mind mPping?
So is zettalkasten an enormous mind map?
Informer i use mindmaps. Now i use Obsidian. But mindmaps are good when you want to develop a thought quickly.
Hey Artem, this is fantastic! I found your channel through SoME1 and am loving the content!
I wonder if you've ever experimented with location-based or other mnemonic memory techniques for study?
🤔. . . Is there a way to connect Zettelkasten & MindMaps ?
Terrific question! I've been wondering about this myself for half a year, but unfortunately I don't have a good answer.
On one side, there is Tinderbox - a very sophisticated piece of software, that allows you to visually lay out your notes on a "map". The idea is very good, but I didn't resonate with the execution, though. It's quite buggy, has a lot of friction, no proper support for images, math etc. Plus, it's mac-only and very expensive.
The way I do it now is I just create separate notes for mind maps in Obsidian and then embed pictures of mind maps from Notability.
There is also Excalidraw plugin for Obsidian, but I haven't worked this it too much.
Please let me know if you know any other option! The issue of combining "visual thinking" and Zettelkasten is really bugging me
@@ArtemKirsanov One other option I've been thinking about: Writers Block (software). Let me know what you think, after investigation. . .
@@ArtemKirsanov Modern thought mapping software seems to just be fancy note taking and organization. There is a lack of support for mapping thinking in more cerebral ways.
I get why that’s the case - it’s hard to force people into rigid thinking paradigms and people want to be lazy. If I want to compare, for example, I can just embed a comparison into the thought map. However, that doesn’t represent the thinking that people actually have.
Another approach could be an AI creating thinking maps from human inputted data. Give the AI the ability to represent the logical connections. Have the AI automatically provide, let’s say, six different options for sorting the inputted data. User selects the data and tweaks it as needed. A really good program might even learn from the selected maps and tweaks.
I am not a programmer and have no idea what would be involved in such an endeavor, but I bet there would be a huge market. Especially if it could take completed/tweaked maps and produce a linear paper/draft from it.

@@ArtemKirsanov May I ask then, in this case, in which scenarios you use mindmaps and in which scenario you use zettelkasten by obsidian and so on? I'm thinking of using both in the case that maybe zettelkasten and mindmao could help each other in different things. My guess is that mindmaps might be better of a topic that needs to be compacted and or to see it in a higher view and maybe zettelkasten helps in details of the information and also in the way of developing random new ideas that you wouldn't thought you would have thought of.
These mind maps have the same topology as computer programs -- directed acyclic graphs.
My brain places as I call it are a legit constructed world following my understanding of the real world as I learn and grow. I literally have a library in my room in my cabin in (blah blah blah) in my head. Daydreaming for my world building and memory tools i sort of fused into one.
I think if i had aphantasia or whatever it's called where you can't envision things in your head, i would have a totally different internal understanding of that internal space.
What does this mean my brain looks like?
What does any of this stuff mean?
Why is your channel so up my alley?
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
I just assumed everyone did this in thier heads automatically, with everything.....go figure.
I do lol
Not more than 5 separation

Why?
Have you heard of Tony Buzan? I wonder if he would disagree with your advice on “few words, lots of pictures”; I have not see a single mind map that he has created that aligns with your advice.
I saw Tony Buzan himself saying that "a picture is worth a thousand words" for mind mapping, saying that using and including pictures will make you associate the idea automatically. So I guess he would agree, regardless of what mind mapping examples you've seen him do.
This is the video, before someone says I'm inventing things: ua-cam.com/video/u5Y4pIsXTV0/v-deo.html
@@Shishnut You've misunderstood what Tony Buzan was saying and if you watch that video you linked, he STARTS with an image.. he doesn't construct entire mind maps containing nothing but images.
@@bobbyv3 Not really. I never said that he does the same, you're the one assuming that. I'm just saying that he clearly understands the power of imagery and that, therefore, I find it unlikely that he would be AGAINST Kirsanov's style. Using words makes it easier to add concepts and doesn't require the person to try to draw something that they can understand later. Using words also makes it easier for other people to understand your mind maps.
That just makes it easier to show examples and to convince more people to use the method, which of course is a good idea for Buzan, since he one of the people who started with this concept and it's modern terminology.
One things doesn't exclude the other. Also, Buzan agreeing or not with Kirsanov's interpretation measn absolutely nothing. Busan didn't invent anything new. This is a natural way of organizing ideas based on how our brain works. I just see no reason for Buzan to disagree with this interpretation (and he hasn't officially disagreed so far, so we're just speculating here), and again, even if he did, that proves nothing.
As long as people are taking notes, making connections, finding and creating knowledge and learning, that's the only thing that really matters in the end.
A picture has thousand words
A neutral tissue is can't regenerate so they are deep inside
Mind map

scribled picture
Give demonstration so i could understand the thought process that goes into making one.
