Some marginalia do not need a caption save it's "A chicken riding a goat and jousting with a flower."

LIke many of the marginalia I find, the poster did not cite the manuscript.

Is anyone practicing sketchnotes like patterns in their notes? | Chris Aldrich

I've noticed that u/khimtan has a more visual stye of note taking with respect to their cards, but is anyone else doing this sort of visualization-based type of note taking in the vein of sketchnotes or r/sketchnoting? I've read books by Mike Rohde and Emily Mills and tinkered around in the space, but haven't actively

It doesn’t take anything from your thesis, but given the context, such a drollery might also serve to make a highly memorable loci on the page for a student to associate the knowledge on the page to the image which is unlikely to be forgotten. (see: Ad Herennium; Frances A. Yates’ The Art of Memory (1966); Mary Carruthers’ The Book of Memory (1990)).

Realizing my interest in old and illuminated manuscripts, incunables, and drolleries is giving me ideas for icons, dividers, lettering, and illustrations for my sketchnotes process. These are the original (OG) sketchnotes. Today's #ManuscriptOfTheDay is Ms. Codex 1060, a calendar and lectionary, ca. 1450, and gradual from the last quarter of the 15th century, for use … Continue reading

I’ve used Cornell notes specifically with mnemonic methods before. In addition to the date, name, subject area, I’ll also write down an associated memory palace.

I typically keep some space in the recall column to write down associated PAO, Major System, etc. images related to the key concepts, dates, and other notes and sometimes include locations along with the images. Sometimes I may make the notes themselves the memory palace by drawing sketches, doodles or other drolleries into the margins. Depending on the information I may also encode details into other pre-existing palaces.

I can then come back to the notes and do spaced repetition over them to strengthen the images, loci, and ideas. Depending on the material, I might transfer the basics of the notes over to Anki or Mnemosyne for more formal spaced review.
