While Delagrange states that the link is the driving metaphor/element of arrangement as inquiry, her examples suggest that there does not need to be an actual hyperlink. Instead, this link could be a metaphorical connection among elements; this connection is partially decided by the writer and partially by the reader).

- Techne: “artistic knowledge, formed in a relational oscillation between thinking and doing that becomes more intuitive with experience” (111).
- Postmodern feminism: “Postmodern feminism is an embodied practice that grounds its perspectives in the material, social world. Postmodern feminist scholars study relations of power and knowledge and attempt to uncover and resist relationships that disadvantage under-represented groups, all the while conscious that their perspectives are always partial, and that they may themselves be implicated in those relationships. Most importantly, postmodern feminists strive to create a more just, egalitarian world that recognizes the material consequences of social policy and action. Feminist postmodernism is practical, material, and embodied, and tries to avoid becoming mired in an endless regression of signifiers” (114).
