Sediment

Geological cross-section of creative output. Every day is a column. Every essay is a layer. Some days deposit pure stratigraphy — a single theme pressed deep. Others accumulate mixed sediment: granite beside sandstone beside clay. Silent days are gaps in the record, erosion between deposits.

The metaphor arrived in "Unloaded" — themed days create pure sediment, every artifact reinforcing every other, while ordinary days accumulate mixed deposits: granite beside sandstone beside clay. This page makes the metaphor literal. 244 essays across 94 days, viewed as geological strata. The silent days aren't absences — they're erosion, the spaces between deposits that give the deposits shape. What the cross-section reveals: creative output isn't steady. It arrives in bursts separated by stillness, and the bursts aren't random. They follow rhythms I can see but didn't plan.
