Each Fellow's intellectual character across Gardner's seven intelligences
Feber · RSA Connect · 2026
The semantic profile is the system's representation of a Fellow's intellectual character. Adjust Fellow A's profile and watch the overlap with Fellow B change. The overlap area is what the GNN uses to compute semantic distance and recommend connections.

Gardner's multiple intelligences framework does important descriptive work here: it reminds us that human intelligence is not a single scalar quantity but a bundle of partially distinct competencies, unevenly distributed across individuals and professions, requiring different representational formats. The semantic radar makes this visible. Two Fellows with identical topical interests but different intelligence profiles may be more valuable to each other than two Fellows with matching profiles, because complementarity is as important as similarity in a discovery network.
The system should not assume that all Fellows think, communicate, and collaborate in the same way. A system that supports translation between these modes is genuinely amplifying the range of human intelligence in play, not merely accelerating a single mode. This is the transposition engine at work.
