Touchdown

It's been a while, but the first codes have been posted. I've placed them in places where I hope people will be open minded to the idea-- or procrastinating. Libraries, stairwells, bathrooms. The pieces that I've been putting up lack direct context in the city. The pieces might remind me of New York in general, but there isn't the specific connection I'm looking for. I'll need to do some writing this weekend.

Pressing Onward + Medium Horizon Goals

I've made some simple changes to the website, trying to keep it as neutral and open to collaboration as possible. Trying to find a middle-ground font for the different genre's which will hopefully one day occupy the site is hard. Individual customization would obviously be much better. Beyond font size and background color though, I think photo backgrounds, washed out, fogged, or blurred, would be a cool backdrop to set a bold text upon, setting the time and place for the poetry or prose more appropriately or for contrast. 

For instance: you sit on a park bench in Prospect park in the middle of July. The code you scan on the bench has a blurred photo of the view from the same bench on a snowy January morning. The background is blurred or illegible so there is no instinct to dissect it for information, yet the tone, the pallet of colors with which to read the poem is instantly set. The poem might play on the contrast of seasons.
