Field notes
The page organizes entries as both a city-by-city forecast and a shelf of short films, with each saying paired to a counterpart and a gloss. The interactive “Shake the jar” control suggests a way to encounter an entry at random. The project reports 15 sayings in the jar so far and says entries that cannot be checked against a dictionary or another solid source are left out.
