Why Digital Garden Concept?

I code professional web user interfaces for my day job for the past 10+ years. So when it comes to my website, I have the freedom to play with code to spark creativity. I've spun up blogs throughout my career and abandoned them. I found their concept and information design restrictive. Blogs and portfolio sites do not represent all the dimensions of who I am and my interests.

• always a work in progress which mirrors my journey in life
• inspirations and notes are like seeds.
• seeds may grow into seedlings and some may stay dormant
• inspirations and notes may grow into ideas,
• ideas may turn into experiments and potential projects
• some seedlings may blossom and some may not
• a garden is never complete and requires tending to
• a garden can have many sections interconnecting
  • a mini garden within a garden i.e. TIL notes and this sketchbook are two different gardens

Compliments well with:

• learning/making/working in public paradigm
• Indie Web principles
• sketchnoting and bullet journaling
• maker's mindset
