During quarantine I designed a paper-based system for making QR codes by hand. Everything is very papery and bureaucratic, but also fun. Tables to look up bytes, long forms for calculating Reed-Solomon, and even transparent sheets of paper for comparing different masking patterns.

My goal is to film a video of generating a QR code without any computers or even calculators. It's possible, just might take two hours or so.
