  <script type='text/javascript'>
    var your_model = new Backbone.Model({name: 'Hello', place: 'World!'});
    ko.applyBindings(kb.viewModel(your_model), $('#model')[0]);
  </script>

If you want to inspect a collection, set up the bindings like:

  <ul id='collection' data-bind="template: {name: 'kbi_collection_node', data: kbi.nvm('root', true, $data)}"></ul>
  <script type='text/javascript'>
    var your_collection = new Backbone.Collection([{name: 'Hello', place: 'World!'}, {name: 'Goodbye', place: 'Samsara!'}]);
