+# Thought Roam _(thoughtroam)_
+
+> An anchor point for the minds of curious collaborators,
+> moving about aimlessly or without any destination.
+
+The Thought Roam is a digital platform
+for a collection of scholarly students
+at the bachelor program Humanistic Technology at Roskilde University (Humtek).
+
+## Purpose
+
+Thoughtroam serves two purposes.
+
+Internally within and between the involved project groups,
+thoughtroam is a reference points for the scriblings drafted
+by the individual group members involved.
+
+At the same time,
+as those contributed scriblings evolve to form larger meaningful texts,
+thoughtroam serves as a reference point for outside readers,
+including, but not limited to, the tutors guiding the project groups
+and the opponent groups providing peer reviews.
+
+Thoughtroam may find additional use
+as a template for other project work -
+be it by the collaborators themselves, or fellow Humtech students,
+or anyone else finding benefit in the way things are structured,
+or perhaps in the archived historic evolution
+available through its [transparent revision tracking][git source].
+
+## Origin
+
+At Roskilde University, 50% of the curriculum is student-driven,
+done within project groups formed at the beginning of each semester.
+
+At the Spring 2024 semester at Humtek,
+Multiple groups sprung from a curiosity to explore [Graph theory].
+Thoughtroam was created
+to coordinate a coordination across those project groups.
+
+## Contributing
+
+Feel free to informally reach out
+to the involved participants of thoughtroam,
+if you have constructive feedback.
+Please use the contact information tied to the specific subset
+that you wish to respond to.
+
+The project teams are however not formally open
+to participation from outsiders,
+so any closer collaboration beyond casual remarks
+require approval by Roskilde University.
+See the file <_affiliations.yml> for contact information.
+
+You are most welcome to help propose changes
+to the overarching structure for this project.
+The preferred approach is that you make your proposed changes
+to a fork of our [git source],
+and then [tell us](#License) how to access your fork.
