Densely interconnected mess is supposedly a small bit, of what?

Answer:

A “semantic network” representing a small bit of the content of Douglas Hofstadter’s book “Godel, Escher, Bach, an eternal golden braid”. Connections in the graph involve semantic connections between topics in the circles, as perceived by Mr. Hofstadter.

    By Douglas Hofstadter.
    “representing a complex interdependency of many symbols cannot be carried out very easily with just a few lines joining vertexes” it seems.

    This is a representation of a semantic network.

    From the book, ‘Gödel, Escher, Bach: an Eternal Golden Braid’
