# Luhmann‘s Principle: Branching
How is the “Story” (relationship) from System to Reality related with (the story from System to) Contingency?
* Branching and note sequences allow “Story Telling” * Cum grano salis, branching and note sequences are “developing” or evolving texts on a specific topic (Sequence) or side topics (branching) * Branching allows reduction of complexity concerning tags and register * The key is to combine all techniques: Note sequences and branching, in combination with tags / register and links / references
