On keeping a zibaldone - L'Atelier Nomade

"Zibaldone means a heap of things or miscellany in Italian. They date back to antiquity and were kept particularly during the Renaissance and in the nineteenth century. Such books are essentially scrapbooks filled with items of every kind: recipes, quotes, letters, poems, tables, proverbs, prayers, legal formulas …"

L'Atelier Nomade · On keeping a zibaldone - L'Atelier NomadeZIbaldone, the word means a heap of things or miscellany in Italian. As a commonplace book, it can be described as a register of continuous learning.

Another post in my mini-series on my Notebooks. This time a gift from someone. It incorporates two of my passions -- Notebooks and Gin.

It's a simple 15x21mm ruled book, with a cardboard outer; ring-bound. To date I have not made use of it. The notebook occupies my auxiliary collection waiting for a purpose. I have considered using it to keep notes on my gin tasting events. I've done a number of these - fun events where you get to listen to me talking about gin, and then we taste four different libations. And we raise some money for charity.

For the next notebook in my mini-series, I offer you my most utilitarian end of the collection. My Little Black Book, always accompanied by a Japanese Muji black-ink 0.5mm gel pen.

This trojan accompanies me almost everywhere as it is a pocket-sized 9x14mm. It has no specific purpose other than to store anything that pops in to my head when I am out and about. It has been around for some time, and is showing signs of wear and tear, and repair. Thankfully it is hard-bound and serves me well.

Next in my mini-series on my notebooks, I present to you my Scribbling Jotter. A 'Jotter' was what we called our writing book when I was at infant-school. And it looks just like it.

This is a stiff-paper bound A4 size book with 21x30cm ruled pages. It sits at the side of my computer keyboard and I scribble down random details. I could be on a video call; working on a project; thinking about a task; needing somewhere to jot down something for later. It could just be one word; a number; or a few sentences. It all goes in here.

It works as part of my eidetic memory. At a future point I can see where on the page I wrote the piece of information I need, and I can locate it quickly. I've kept these books going back several years now.

Interestingly, I always write in green ink in this book! My favourite ink colour.
