Collecting as a way of seeing
Why I keep the badges, the cards, and the ticket stubs. It is not nostalgia.
A collection is an argument about what matters, made slowly, one object at a time.
I collect because it forces me to pay attention. To choose what to keep is to decide what a moment meant, and you cannot do that on autopilot.
TODO(Kyle): a paragraph on a specific object and the decision to keep it.
