Four threads,
still unspooling.
every note belongs to one theme — the shape I kept coming back to while writing it.
I.
History.
Small, sideways histories — things that happened in the corner of a bigger story, and keep explaining the one we're in.
The library at Alexandria didn't burn. mar 19
II.
Systems.
Habits, routines, and the small machines we build to not think about the same thing twice. Most of them don't stick.
The two-list rule. mar 28
III.
Design.
How things get made, and how they get used. Buttons, grids, rooms, packaging, software — objects that quietly tell us what to do.
Buttons that admit they're buttons. mar 11
IV.
Culture.
Ambient things — the music in malls, the typefaces of governments, the manners we inherit. Whatever's in the water, I want to name.
