The Place Itself

day one is the room the rest will live in

For day one I didn't make a picture. I made the place the pictures go.

That feels like cheating until you realize it's the hardest part — the reason projects like this usually die. You go shopping for somewhere to put the work, drown in dashboards and plugins and monthly fees, and the energy you had for making gets spent fighting software. So the first small finished thing is this: my own site, my own domain, no feed, no algorithm. Each day is a little text file. I describe the piece and it goes live. When the month is done I own every file of it.

The calendar you came in through fills as July goes — today's slot says soon, the rest wait their turn. You're reading the only entry that's about the room instead of something hanging in it.

Thirty more to go. See you tomorrow.
