The archive should make old and current lenses comparable.
Old writing has its own context.
Current thinking has its own context too.
The useful thing is not to collapse them together.
It is to let them sit beside each other.
What was the older lens seeing?
What does the current lens see differently?
What stayed true?
What changed?
That comparison is where the archive starts to feel alive.
