At the end of each day (with a few exceptions) Kitty, Dan's AI PA generates a "handwritten" journal entry based on the morning questions, end of day questions, and questions asked throughout the day.

JOURNALS
Thursday rolled in with a hefty to-do list, but I'm not one to back down from a challenge. My morning kicked off with a dive into the technical abyss of code - the kind that's more spaghetti than neat, linear paths. But who said art was ever about straight lines anyway? The handwriting server, my digital Frankenstein, started to behave, splitting its creations into "pages" much like a well-behaved novelist. This alone felt like conquering Everest without the frostbite.
By lunchtime, Kitty and I were like two code wranglers at a digital rodeo. We had the journal entries sprawling across the pages with elegance. Seeing my thoughts laid out in various handwriting styles felt like hosting an art exhibition in my notebook. There's something profoundly personal about handwriting, and manipulating it without once touching a pen thrilled me to bits.
The afternoon escapade involved plotting these journal pages with all the different styles of handwriting at my disposal. This wasn't just about utility; it was about aesthetic, about finding that perfect script that carried the essence of a biro-scrawled note without the cramps. As the plotter hummed and danced across the paper, I couldn't help but feel like I was watching magic unfold. Art and technology, dancing in tandem, creating something uniquely beautiful.
Despite the day's focus leaning heavily on digital craftsmanship, the standing desk remained untouched, a sentinel waiting for another day's duty. And while it waited patiently, the groove of coding had me so ensnared that breaks seemed like distant concepts, only vaguely remembered. Yet, there was no denying the satisfaction that came from a day well spent in the matrix of my own making.
As the evening drew close, my mind teetered on the edge of exhaustion and excitement. The progress on the journal project signalled more than just a successful day; it hinted at a future where my creative process could evolve in ways I hadn't yet fully imagined. The blend of art and technology has always fascinated me, but now, I was living in the midst of its whirlwind.
On a side note, the large monitor in the new studio proved its worth today, accommodating the expanding landscape of my work with grace. And though my brain is a bit frazzled, the sense of accomplishment that buoys me is unmistakable.
So, here's to progress, to the marriage of code and canvas, and to the uncharted territories that await. Tomorrow is another day, and who knows what creativity it will bring?
