Good Sign-Offs Volvelle

Print wheel chart device.

A volvelle, or wheel chart, is a type of slide chart considered an early example of an analog computer. They exist for a variety of subjects, from astronomy and medicine to bird calls and fortune-telling.

When I was first introduced to Are.na, Good Sign Offs was one of the first boards I contributed to. I was enamoured by this collaborative and algorithm-free platform for collecting and organizing hyper-niche ideas. It felt like all my years of tracking mundane (and perhaps useless) information in spreadsheets and notes apps have prepared me for this moment.

An ode to hyper curation. Video here.
