On the name
I toyed around with many, many name ideas for this. I wanted something that encapsulated the biblical horrors of academic project management, that incorporated the feeling of terror that one feels in the face of overwhelm, in the face of the soldiers of ‘light’ trying to enforce the ways of their world upon those of us lowly creatures of mud.
Naturally this led to looking through the list of fallen angels. Eventually I settled on Penemue who taught humans to understand writing, and the use of ink and paper. Please enjoy this quote found on the wikipedia page:
Nor would death, which destroys everything, have effected [sic] them;
But by this their knowledge they perish, and by this also its power consumes them.[2]
as I too have been consumed by the power of knowledge brought about by having this project management system, that looks a lot like a personal knowledge management solution crossed with Notion.
The PeneMure/ProjectManagement reuse of letters in groups is just a lucky coincidence.
And naturally there’s a logo as well
