As you may already be aware, this blog is one of several projects that I have been working on over the past several years. The underlying goal has centered around building a foundation onto which I can layer in new creative projects and pursuits. This is why I’ve branded my main web site and bundled these projects within a title I call “Supercharged Creative Exploration.”
The original home page design launched earlier this year showcased the three original projects – Incubator, Microcosms and Pixeldust. Since that time, I’ve also included a few other projects to the list – including Ink.
Not surprisingly, one of my goals has involved designing a new home page that provides visitors with a complete inventory of these projects along with a modular format that is easy to update.
With this goal in mind, I’ve formulated a few graphic designs that do just this. While the current design solves the current objective and is easy to update, I consider it an early version and will eventually be replaced. Over the next several months, I plan on eventually migrating to one of the site designs show below: (or some derivation thereof)
If you visit the new site, you’ll also notice a new link – something that I call “The Visual Journey.” This is a design that encapsulates who I am, what I am interested in, and some more information about the history of my professional career and my interests. I think it will help people understand what motivates me and what I am passionate about.
Due to the nature of the design and purpose, I’ve left it in a PDF format. It’s best read using the official Adobe Acrobat reader but aside from a few minor graphic inconsistencies on the title page, the Preview application available in Mac OS X should also work well.
The combination of this new design along with the Visual Journey supplement symbolizes the next chapter in my creative and intellectual journey – it’s a chapter I call “Immersion.”
