JOODALOOP

……abundance grindset……integrity……prickly-soft……ordinary genius……lightness……guerrilla design……HTML handiwork……balling……

WEBCRAFT is my personal “web studio”, where I design and develop tasteful websites for people/orgs who appreciate my particular brand of purposeful minimalism.

This site – joodaloop.com – is my primary home on the web. It acts as an eternal notepad, a “personality gallery”, and a consolidation of my presence on the WWW. Check out the Colophon to learn more about it’s design, and the Changelog for updates.

A few tips for navigating the site:

  • On your first visit, all the site’s text content (~0.3MB, less than a single Wikipedia page) is loaded in the background so that every page you open will load instantly, whether or not you’re connected to the internet.
  • You can bring up a quick navigation menu using ⌘ + K on desktop, or tapping the screen with two fingers on mobile.
  • My essays and rough notes live on the Writing page.
  • The Workbench contains worknotes (what?) and ideas.
  • Riffs and ~~~ are a microblog and nanoblog respectively.

August, 2026

Back to client work, after being emotionally (?) blocked on it for a while. I’ve written about why I think it happened, and have since acquired a new seriousness and vigour around my practice.

The last client project I completed was the Paradigm 3 website, and the most recent design favour was the essay page layout for Anjali’s website.
