Intertwingularity is a portmanteau of the words intertwined and intermingled, coined by information-technology theorist Ted Nelson in 1974 to express the dense and interconnected relationships in human knowledge. The term is now commonly used to describe semantic systems of organization that are non-sequential, non-hierarchical, and which are antithetical to hierarchical systems.
