Casting around (again) for an alternative to Tumblr as an, Chazzer G suggested Are.na. So I have set up what I have today learned Are.na calls a channel: Heidegger’s surfboard.
I doubt this will stick, but going to give it a try.
Pleased that doing a bit of work with Measured is an opportunity to use their open source visual editor, Puck. It might only be at version 0.16.0, but it’s a lovely way to put good things on the web.
For posterity, here are some archive.org entries for the iterations of the Vouchsafe website I was most involved with.
This capture from May 2024: shows the first version of the website to go live following their pivot and rebrand from Interrobang to Vouchsafe.
The development and design of the website and rebrand was done by Macu with me in a lightweight project manager-meets-creative director role. Vouchsafe’s founders were also directly involved.
This capture from August 2024 shows a first iteration where I had a chance to revisit the messaging and copy which had been first developed by Macu.
Unfortunately the site styling is missing from that capture — possibly to do with the website platform being switched from Webflow to Wordpress, hence sharing both captures.
Went along to State of the Browser on Saturday. A really good event. I thoroughly recommend.
I managed to grab some quality time with the Barbican Centre that morning. It’s September, now, but still plenty of vibrant greens to have fun with VSCO’s infrared filters. Shared on Instagram.
Created some lightweight CSS for Write.as that succesfully styles all the things, including on post archive pages. Sharing in case it’s a useful starting point for others, if only to save the hassle of figuring out class selectors.
