I’m starting a new project that I expect to take a while. I’d like to do a very careful reading1 of John Ruskin’s The Seven Lamps of Architecture, taking notes with a mind towards eventually synthesizing and harmonizing Ruskin’s views of physical architecture with a conception of software architecture. This isn’t the first time I’ve read the book. My previous reading was casual and mostly consisted of reading it before bed on a Kindle (a poor way to do analysis during reading).| writequit.org
