digital gardens
A digital space; a collection of notes continuously edited. Digital gardens encourage you to tend to thoughts of varying levels of maturity in a hyperconnected single space. Ideas are seeds that sprout into bigger ideas. There is no hierarchy of draft/document - unfinished thoughts are welcome.
“there’s no reason why you have to stick with the digital garden metaphor, which appears to be approaching the end of its shelf life. While the metaphor of the garden conjures up pastoral images […] I’d prefer it to be like the sprawling, abandoned estate of Heligan in Cornwall - but in its wild, overgrown form, before its rediscovery after a century and transformation into a tourist attraction,” - dokoissho
digital ecologies - “Gardens are by their very nature narcissistic: they’re about their owners and their personal tastes and idiosyncrasies rather than the world at large, inward rather than outward looking.”
