on the library / by matt freire

Linden Analog Library is a personal library of image, sound, and language.

It is a place for original work—writing, photographs, and art—alongside books, records, comics, films, and other materials that shape how I see and listen. Some of these works are physical, some digital. All are chosen with care.

“Analog” here does not mean anti-digital. It refers instead to an ethic of attention: work made slowly, encountered deliberately, and revisited over time. A resistance not to technology, but to speed, disposability, and constant output.

This library holds:

  • essays and notes
  • images and visual studies
  • listening notes and marginalia
  • references to other people’s work that continues to matter

There are no reviews, rankings, or recommendations optimized for clicks. Only what earns a place on the shelf.

Linden Analog Library is ongoing.

It grows through use.
