I’ve been meaning to put together a web page for my research project: Articulated Social Networks. Normally, i put together a page that collects all of my materials. Lately, things have been uber scattered so i’ve begun to consolidate. (Yes, this is in prep for actually writing a real ethnographic document.)

Every time i make a webpage, i start out motivated to make it elegantly designed. And i actually get color theory – know when to mess with the hues and when to mess with the saturations. But try as i might, i always end up just wanting to put up a LOT of color and it quickly becomes as hideously eclectic as my bedroom (although always with a lot less pink… 5 years of V-Day and i can’t really do pink websites any more).

A dear friend of mine has a little boy. I remember when he was small, he refused to put on any outfit with less than 5 colors in it. He didn’t want matching socks.

Perhaps i should not be allowed to choose colors in either my digital or physical domain because i tend to choose ALL.
