My handmade #parchment is finished! I learned a huge amount. In several weeks I will be testing it as a writing surface!

Am on Malta, but instead of visiting UNESCO sites, I am spending my days in an abattoir making #parchment. This lovely goatskin is finally finished, after two days of hard and stinky labour. The sheepskin is next!

Medieval books were crafted from animal skin, repaired by hand, and valued by quality. Even stitched pages reveal hidden histories—so what can imperfections tell us about the past?

In a scientific first, they successfully retrieved #pathogen genomes from medieval #parchment and paper #manuscripts 📖 - revealing that historical documents are an under-recognised source of ancient #disease data. (3/4) +1

@retroadventurers.bsky.social I had a lot of fun coming up with this conceit, playing the OLDEST and the YOUNGEST editions of #Zork 1 to come from the MIT/#Infocom core teams. This is a slightly short episode (as playing the same game twice is a bit cheeky given our format), but both these versions of the game are a must-see for completists in the genre.

I mention in passing that I always had a bit of #ImpostorSyndrome around Zork, as I have held the domain `zork.net` since the mid/late 90s. I always felt like I was simultaneously dodging #Activision's lawyers and feeling awkward around the die-hard fans who played until they got every last point. Now that #Microsoft has released everything under an open licence, I should probably put a free build up on my site in #Parchment to celebrate!

The Zork-285 game is interesting in that it did not call itself "Zork"! You'll have to listen to the latest #RetroAdventurers episode to find out what it says. #InteractiveFiction
