- Interesting UI --- wants a full-screen mode and 2-up view and a way to remove all the chrome/UI....
An earlier example of this sort of thing was Bill Gates' purchase of the Codex Leceister https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Codex_Leicester which was then digitized and released on a CD-ROM by Corbis:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leonardo_da_Vinci_(video_game)
which was quite engaging, but sadly trapped in the technology of the time --- anyone know of an updated version of it?

- If you get an opportunity to see them in person, it’s worth it because the fine details are that much more impressive up close. Every photo I’ve seen is not as good. Also the illustration is tinier than you would think.
- This is beautiful! I am having some difficulty with the UI; is there a torrent? Images like https://codex-atlanticus.ambrosiana.it/assets/500/000R-1.jpg are too low in resolution for good archival; you can't even read the writing.

- Excellent work — reminds me of similar projects built with the same tech stack:
– Coins: A journey through the Münzkabinett Berlin collection (one of the largest in the world). https://uclab.fh-potsdam.de/coins/
– Theodor Fontane Marginalia: A visualization of Fontane’s marginalia and notes in his personal library. https://uclab.fh-potsdam.de/ff/
- Why are some of the pages upside down?

- amazing! The categorization is nice, but I would love to see some sort of "tag cloud" that would allow use to view more specific content. How long until someone creates a tool to RAG the hell out of this? :)

- > We use it to express mild surprise that one person could use both their left and right hemispheres equally well.
When did this myth become so perpetuated? It's infuriating. I blame university administration. I can't think of any other reason to so firmly distinguish different areas of thought.
