Documentation/Papers & Presentations

 

Additional links to specific projects. Also included are projects in progress and the projected time of completion.​

​

OVO Scroll Inspired by Bridwell MS9 Book of Hours, f.29r using various period materials and techniques

  • Older documentation; not perfect, but a useful starting point

  • Original had appendices (now lost to time) to keep the primary document concise & avoid the clutter of things judges likely already knew. Only change made to doc was to show where this information can be found on my website instead.

  • Numerical citations used instead of in-text citations to maintain better flow (this is a personal choice, not a standard) & footnotes included for quick & specific reference access for readers.

​

Balancing the Use of Period Scribal Materials with SCA Scroll Conventions & Needs

  • Google Drive folder link for PDF of paper & presentation slides + raw images (sorted)

  • Less formal writing style for accessibility

  • No in-text citations since a lot of this information crosses over so much that every other sentence would have like five different citations

  • YouTube Asynchronous Class

​

Dangerous Beauty: Hazards in Medieval Arts & Sciences (version 1, 06.26.2025)

  • Google Drive link for PDF of slides. This is open for anyone to comment to suggest edits & additions.

  • This is intended to be broadly useful. Some of the information here, while extensive, is still pretty quick & dirty. This is meant to expose you to things you might not have thought to dig into. I heavily encourage you to dive deeper for any materials you are working with.

  • There is no YouTube link for this presentation yet as I want this to be an ongoing conversation and will likely teach this multiple times as I incorporate new information. I'll record once I feel it's about as complete as it can get.
