Field Notes
Field Notes is live. A note is a Markdown file with a title, a date and a category: daily, projects, ideas or media.
In Merlin it's an app: a sidebar with counts, search, and the notes as cards grouped by day. A guest can open it.
On the desk it's a notebook, right of the trackball. Click it and it lifts, tilts toward you and the cover swings open on an e-ink page with the latest note. Click again for the next one, with an e-ink flash and a tick.
