Found: Ink, Paper and Archives

Things have been incredibly busy lately and I've been flipping between ideas and interests and intrigues as if they were some sort of intellectual flipbook. Lately it seems as if half of my day is spent thinking about digital archives and the other half spent thinking about paper and ink. Occasionally I will run into things that make me stop and marvel at their loveliness. Yesterday it was the Thomas Jefferson Papers which somehow managed to embody three of my current fascinations: digital archives, ink and paper. Time and the grey cold skies melted away as I perused Jefferson's Garden Book. It's a beautiful document in so many ways.
