  1. I've not been as active here lately (or in general) but I managed to put together my End Notes for March 2026 because a deadline is a deadline! :)

    This is my personal “snapshot” of a month’s photographic activities, weather observations, and a few other things to share, together with some links and new photos.

    Here is the March 2026 edition:

  5. My recent post about Luca Pacoli cited Noam Andrews's fascinating book ‘The Polyhedrists: Art and Geometry in the Long Sixteenth Century’ [mitpress.mit.edu/9780262046640].

    It seems that in 2023 it won a bronze medal from the Stiftung Buchkunst in the category ‘Best Book Design from all over the World’ [stiftung-buchkunst.de/best-boo].

    I can only assume that the judges did not evaluate the design by actually reading the book.

    The prize citation says: ‘Type area, typeface and the pictures' warm mood radiate a sense of calm. […] browsing through it is pure joy.’

    Reading rather than browsing is a *different* experience. The book has no running heads, either in the main text or in the 20 pages of endnotes.

    So, even leaving aside my dislike of endnotes (especially when they mix discursion and citation), if one wants to consult an endnote, without running heads one is *lost*. One has to flip back through the pages of the text to find the chapter title, then flip through the endnotes to find the corresponding heading, and only then can one find the correct note.

    (To be clear: none of my complaints here are about Andrews's scholarship or writing, only the book design.)

  24. @marlowe @DrALJONES There was a time, when #typesetting was first done on computers, when #footnotes were difficult, time-consuming, and expensive. So publishers preferred #endnotes because they were cheaper. This ceased to be true about 2002, when InDesign 2.0 (and soon after Quark XPress) became able to handle footnotes as easily as Word had been doing all along. So now there’s no excuse for endnotes except “We've always done it that way.” Always!
