“We are healthy only to the extent that our ideas are humane.”
― Kurt Vonnegut, Breakfast of Champions
March is ending and things haven’t quite turned around for 2020. There’s a lot of interesting stuff coming out visually, but I don’t think that means anything specific. Maybe people just have a little time on their hands to do the hard work of documentation and sharing. Enjoy the fruit of that labor.
