Databases
The 4banks websites do not have tabular databases (except in a limited way in the indices), but the RECORD section [missing page - ZI816 mDP] (Part II) of each website is in effect the conceptual equivalent of a (tabular) database. The information is presented without a narrative thread that links the various items.
On the other hand, each item in the database has explicit links to various other narrative layers (the arrows to the outside) and within the items themselves (arrow between X and Z). This gives a special dynamic dimension to our databases, one that helps actualize in new ways the full potential of the digital medium.
