Tools give us superpowers

An human with a pliers is superior to other human if the rest of parameters remain the same.
What’s the most valuable basic tool? Maybe a knife. Versatile, easy to be produced and light to carry on. Oh, paradox… The tool which helped humans to develop a civilization is now forbidden in some of those called developed civilizations.

I’d take some issues as a features instead. Unfriendly people is a chance to practice patience and solitude. An invitation to avoid human contact.

Pentel mechanical pencils
Travel route shapes
For some reason I like the feeling in this page. It shows how my travel route has evolved in recent years: From a line to an orchid shape, ending up in a dot point. Usually that dot is Bangkok. Its magnetic filed attracted me over and over and I'm happy it happens.
After a few months using Muji black pen for main text I can say it's the best ink for a gel pen I've found.

The Nautilus Manuscript: Prototypes

Today I was organising things and I had in my hands the prototypes used for Nautilus manuscript.
They always mesmerise me. Each one is an iteration in a search for perfection. Each label is something to be corrected.
Oh, perfection… It can’t be reached in a handmade product, I know that. But I improved each version, polishing every detail as far as I can. Also I have to say I enjoyed the process a lot. They are my babies. Well, people produce babies in one attempt, no iterations. Maybe that’s the reason for so many unfinished people walking by there.
