The Party Has Started
Hello, and welcome! Our collective field journal first took form on Saturday, November 30, 2024, when we ordered four customized notebooks from Leuchtturm, the century-old German journal maker. From a seemingly endless array of possibilities, we chose the brand’s A5 size, in soft covers and blank sheets. These notebooks are light enough to carry everywhere, yet the 5.8 x 8.3-inch pages offer a large enough canvas for drawing, painting, or pasting objects. Soft covers aren’t fussy, and their flexibility guarantees they will become bent, dented, scarred, individualized, and otherwise marked by their travels—exactly what we hope!
The books are scheduled to arrive at FJC HQ in mid-December and from there will be sent to their first four journalistos.
