May 1st Reboot
You may have noticed the tranquileye cover page has been replaced by an introduction to the May 1st Reboot, an international relaunch of web sites by authors and creatives working within the field of Web design.
As a collective event it makes a manifest demonstration of the very idea of community. It is, quite simply, an indeterminate group of designers subscribing to one event in order to publicise their work at one specific time across any number of different locations. And it is in that sense that it is most interesting to us, and by extension to those involved in or entering the world of Web Design online.
My expectation is that I will be presenting a new spring-themed tranquileye.home design on May 1st, even though the weather is still a bit too winter-themed for me here in Ottawa. I also hope to finally make available, at the same time, a collection of essays about making the Web.
