Devlin Leathercraft
I don't think enough attention is paid to the humble leather handle.
These handles take many steps and much time to complete but will last generations. Two handles are cut, along with four pieces of stiff leather filler. The hardware is riveted onto the handles. The filler pieces are glued over these rivets on either sides of the handles. The filler pieces are trimmed, top and bottom to even them out and round the tops. A rectangular piece of leather is "cased" (dampened with water), formed around each handle and stretched to accommodate the curves. These are clamped and allowed to dry. The handles are dyed to coordinate with the case they being fastened to, stitching holes are punched and then the covering is stitched on with contrasting waxed thread. The raw edge, along the top, is trimmed, sanded even and smooth and then edge finished to seal and refine. #LeatherCraft #handles #HandMade #Bags #Cases
Six pieces of vegetable tanned leather, grain side up. They are shaped like horseshoes with the tips cut off. Two have longer ends that have been folded back onto themselves to hold brass "D" rings. These are riveted into place with the round end of the "D" inside the fold.
The same pieces of leather however the pieces without the hardware are glued onto each side of the pieces with the hardware. This makes two handles with a piece of filler leather on each side of each handle, three pieces of leather each. The ends are clamped into place with green and black spring clamps whilst the glue dries.
Two handles with a thin rectangular piece of vegetable tanned leather beside them. One handle has had leather wrapped around it and this leather is held in place with small, clear spring clamps. The other handle does not have a wrapping but shows signs of having been trimmed to round its shape. It should be understood by the composition of the photo that the rectangular piece of leather will be wound around the handle that has not yet been wrapped.
Two handles, one with ends facing up and one with ends facing down, that have had their wrapping stitched onto them and have been dyed mahogany brown.

(6/N) A final set of prompts, for three more categories. Add the related data "assets" that come to your mind to your spreadsheet:

🛰️ #Geospatial data

🗺️ Current #position
🏠 Place of residence
🛰️ GNSS-precision tracks
🗓️ Appointment #calendars
🎫 #Ticket purchases
🏨 Room #reservations
…

🛜 #Infrastructure

🌐 #Internet access
🛜 #Router
🟰 Network neutrality
💻 Hardware
🧑‍💻 Software
🪙 Means of #payment
…

🫥 #Accounts and #handles

📧 Email & Messaging (including content)
⭐ Social media
☁️ Cloud
🫥 Pseudonyms & personas
…

Remember many data "assets" will fall into multiple categories. For every asset, leave a checkmark in all applicable category columns.

(4/N) Having reflected a bit on your abstract assets, try to brainstorm as many of your related data and device assets as possible. Most of them will fall into one or more of the following categories:

🪪 Personally Identifiable Information (#PII)
📇 Social graphs
🗃️ Data and metadata
🛰️ #Geospatial data
🛜 Infrastructure
🫥 #Accounts and #handles

For instance, your smartphone photo collection "asset" probably contains geospatial data (#GPS coordinates in #EXIF); data and metadata (phone brand and model, in EXIF); potentially also information about your social graph, in case your family, friends or acquaintances are on your photos.

It's probably best to track your data and device assets in a spreadsheet, with the above categories as additional columns, so you can place a checkmark, where appropriate. I'd also suggest to add a column to track where the data is stored / the device is located.

Here's a little list of 🪪 Personally Identifiable Information (PII), to get you started (other categories in next posts):

🪪 Any kind of identity document
🎂 Dates of significant life events
👆 #Biometric data
⚕️ #Health data
🧬 #DNA test results
👪 #Genealogy data

Have you got a cute account name, with emojis, and symbols.

Here's what it sounds like..

They probably aren't using #AltText either? That's their screen name, and Hello.. listen to it every reply?

Cute for sighted people.

Did anyone think of how screen readers, for visually impaired, read your replies? If you did, blind people might reply to you, if a simple Hello wasn't so untenable?
