This website is a space to keep track of things related to my hobbies, interests and activities without the feeling of surveillance you get on most other social media platforms.
I decided to make it because I ended up with a job that involves a lot of downtime sitting alone at a computer, and it's boring (good).
The appearance and navigation is inspired by Robert Fludd's 'memory theatre' mnemonic device, from which I have also taken the images used for the homepage and foyer! I want to basically make a spatialized journal that I can move around in, that also happens to be shaped like a dreamscape-theatre.
Fludd was an all-timer Early Modern Weirdo, my least favourite of several who have inspired the other pages on this website. If you want to read more about memory theatres I recommend the chapter in Frances Yates 'The Art of Memory'.
I spend a lot of time lurking around backstage, for work and for fun, and I did an MA on Early Modern Drama; I want this site to feel like one of my stress-dreams during that year.
12/07/26: As of now, I've been putting this website together at my boring job for almost two years! So it's layers and layers of me learning to code and not going back to fix my previous bad code. And also writing new bad code as I try and get a grip on Javascript. I kind of love this as an archive of my own learning process and intend to keep it that way for a while longer, but I also wish it was easier to edit so that I could think about Posting and that my css file was less uhhh horrific... maybe there will be georgecore 2.0 someday.
Cool sites that inspired me more than the late Rob Fludd:
