Great picture and great news!

Obviously Touwaide sorts the plant pages by groups. Hmmm, what does this mean ?

A "teacher crater" LOL! 

My mother and wife were both teachers, and when one of them was lesson-planning, it was understood that that one whole room filled with concentric circles of paper piles was not to be entered. Yeah, I'm pretty sure Prof Touwaide is coming up with some interesting way to categorize and understand the herbal pages that nobody but a medieval herbal guru would think to notice.

I'm getting that "I just saw a trailer for a really awesome upcoming movie" kind of feeling.

I'm in awe that his ability to look through the images and categorise them is based on decades of learning. He must see so much in those images.

What can he see that we mortals cannot...and why is he barefoot ??

Barefoot is healthy

He gets his powers from direct contact with the wooden floor. 

Seriously though, I am very curious. Whatever he is doing, it will surely be interesting.

Maybe he's playing a medievalist herbalist's version of Patience

Maybe he's printed them all out twice and is playing a Voynich herbal memory game.
