 ===Daily Log===
+I try to keep track of my everyday tasks, especially when I am dealing with many little tasks during one day. I can then fight against a potential feeling of unproductivity.
 ===Transiency Diary===
+I use a blog to post open questions I am currently struggling with to a wider sphere.
 ===Libarynth===
+I use this platform more as an encyclopedic report of what I learn from my experiments.
 ===Timeline===
+{{ :michka:img_4896.jpg?400 |}}
+One day, as I felt very unproductive, I decided to represent my daily log in a visual holoptic way. I choose a color code and some symbols, and started a timeline to keep track of my activities over the "long-term".
+Here is the color code I choose:
+   * Light green: Transiency-related activities
+   * Dark green: Transiency-related medium-term project
+   * Blue: exploratory activities, travels
+   * Orange: social activities
+   * Purple: visits to/from friends
+   * Pink: representation events like courses & conference, and their preparation
+This tool allows me to stop freaking out whenever I feel like I did nothing since the beginning of the Transiency. It also allows me to try to understand better why I feel bad or unproductive after some specific period. For instance, I noticed that I have to be careful not to overload myself with social activities, and to keep quite large periods of concentration on Transiency activities, rather than small 2-3 days chunks cut down by many explorations, for instance.
