Once upon a time I watched Jim Jarmusch's Ghost Dog and fell in love with the theme, aesthetic, and philosophy. The underpinning text is the Hagakure: The Book of the Samurai, with which the 14-year-old me became obsessed.
After briefly reigniting my interest when reading a book by Yukio Mishima, I had a hazy idea of an infinite-scrolling Hagakure.
Wherever you are in the world, you can open the page and jump right in at the same point as everybody else.
It's not much, but it was an idea that formed and I'm pleased to have executed it.
In another but similar theme I'd rather have it autoscroll one page/autoturn pages than continuously scroll. Autoscroll reading is somehow very hard for me.
(I like the idea though!)
There actually is a small icon on the bottom right (removed on mobile) but I obviously made it TOO subtle!
