façade-a-day

ashley — Fri, 01 Jan 2010 16:19:00 +0000

is this how we start the fun-a-day thing? maybe we each post an image a day, and whoever is the 2nd one to post has to slap the other’s image and upload the result. ie, if you post before me, then i add yours to mine and upload the hybrid image. are you posting straightforward pix, or are they going to be all trefresteyeled?

update: fun-a-day website

2009 Holiday Cards

Here is a draft. I think they should all look the same.

house two mechanics

ashley — Sat, 19 Dec 2009 21:23:09 +0000

after jt dressed me down for not knowing how to use a compass, i dug out the my pickett templates and did some ’sketching’, trying to think about some of the ideas we were talking about in the introductory thread – so, i am starting a new post to share thoughts about the mechanics of winston’s space. i am thinking this will be more ’spatial concepts’ than actual ‘deployments’ in a constructed arrangement of spaces. hopefully throwing some stuff in here will help when we actually start transcribing the life-scripts of winston smith.

so ashley doesnt have to exert his scrolling finger, please consider this conversation continued here.

Filing Nomenclature

jt — Sat, 12 Dec 2009 15:34:36 +0000

This may not be as fascinating as our race with Houser Walker to release a holiday card but I would like to propose that the work.group move into the 1990s with an internal digital filing nomenclature apparatus. Information would include date, project, contents, etc. Any thoughts? Did you ask me to do this six years ago?
