Pinning down the delicate tendrils of ideas that emerge, making tenuous connections, bringing together disparate concepts.  As a tool for mediating experience. Extracting, documenting, capturing fragments from the environment. In order to better understand, to remember. Then writing back into these fragments, tracing them, tracing over them and connecting them to other fragments.
