Site Info

Context & History: Serial Consign is an online writing project dedicated to cataloguing provocative examples of information design and exploring various facets of digital culture. My interest in representation, media and visualization is not limited to aesthetics as I hope to document how organizational strategies affect the way we think, communicate and experience space. Some topics that are frequently examined on this blog include: digital art, networked urbanism, space in gaming and film, identity and the geosocial web, interface design and imaging technology.

This site was launched in 2004 and rebuilt as a blog in the fall of 2006. I get a moderate amount of email regarding Serial Consign so I've set up a FAQ to address some of the more common questions that I receive. If you have a more specific enquiry, please drop me a line.

Design: This site is built in Drupal, an open source content management system. The design is based on the A3 Atlantis theme by Blamcast and makes use of numerous modules for a wide range of semantic tagging, SEO and interface customization. The block labeled "Drupal Modules" (the sidebar to the right of the main content area) contains links to several key modules that have been used to organize content on this site – many thanks to their respective developers.

If you like the design of this site please note Mission Specialist, my web and graphic design studio.
