From the registry, rebuilt from Peter's researched material cards. Boku-Undo, the same ink as MB5 in a different coloured label (Peter, 2026-09-30): synthetic resin, super concentrated, intense black with purplish-blue undertones when diluted, stable in cold. Previously recorded as a Kuretake ink; the claims that came with that identification are removed. MB5 and MB8 are one ink under two codes, so C2 and C3 share it. BINDER synthetic resin SOOT carbon black CONCENTRATION super SIZE unknown BEHAVIOUR ## Three sources, side by side. The maker's card, what is typical for this type (a reference, labelled so), and what Peter recorded at the table. Empty means not recorded. 2 ## In use. Its life on the table, among the other inks of the year. WHEN ## Every photo day. Each dot a photo day, sized by the paintings made with it. Highlighted: this one.

The line between them, and the number at the end, is how far this material sits above (cyan) or below (ember) the archive. 3 ## The paintings.
