Mapping

Web meme as guerrilla marketing? PFSK recently posted a graph generated by a script that transforms HTML tags into lovely organic pattern: blue for links, violet for images, and orange for line breaks and block quotes.

Enter a site and let the graph grow. As it makes the rounds, pinged to and fro, the site spreads word of Salathe Marcel's art project 356specialdays.com. The concept is so sweet, it makes me feel cynical for calling attention to the self promotion.

365specialdays.com is a conceptual online and offline art project. If one day of the year is a special day for you, let me know and I will create a drawing of what made that day so special for you. You will then get the drawing by postal mail, and I will upload the drawing to this website (including your story - anonymously if you prefer). Over time, this website will be a collection of special days all over the world, and remind us just how special each and every day can be.
