@amoroso 🧵Newton’s Waste Book
4
Bookkeepers kept a “waste book” as a place for notes recorded on the fly. Later they would extract selected information and copy it into the formal ledger. -
@cogdog
I also keep a paper notebook on my nightstand and desk for when I need to log something instantly — a few words, a quick sketch, a note from a meeting, or YouTube (i write down the timestamp).At least for me, it’s still much faster and more flexible than a phone, iPad, or a walk to my MacBook. If it’s of lasting value, I can copy or xref my paper note’s permalink or a snapshot of the notebook page in any digital system of record I choose. And do that days or a week latter. #wastebook

“Isaac Newton’s famous Waste Book, currently kept at Cambridge University Library, is a rare example of a physical continuity between the two cultures of notetaking: humanist and scientific. It starts out as a commonplace book of excerpted scriptural commentary… Newton found the deceased [stepfather] Smith’s partially used commonplace book and began adding his own prolific and inventive notes on mathematical problems and derivations and sketches of physical experiments.” #journal #wastebook

Be your own #Audience for your work-in-progress. Use morning pages or a #WasteBook to chronicle your efforts. Blog about it if you like. Nothing clarifies the mind like putting your failure out there for all the internet to see. (p. 103)

@macosken @evoterra Yep. Absolutely.
That's why we're working on #SafeGuardingResearch & I'm collecting people's stories, #HeirloomFiction & #HeirloomArt
My digital #Wastebook is on a server in the UK & data is being stashed around the globe.

@mcmullin My take is that the Angel of Art is never going to come handing out freebies all on his own. You have to be prepared to listen — and to scribble it down real fast in your #wastebook

So here I sit, with the hurricane/tropical storm Helene somewhere up the road, and the predicted rains and winds never really materialized. We have power, water, internet — what am I supposed to do with my time now that I'm not going to be clearing debris? I know! I shall devote the day to finding just the right #WasteBook for a gargantuan new project.
