‘The microsite is a polemical form to contest the essay’
MicroSplash.org is a workshop event bringing together website makers, designers and others to build simple, smart micro-sites. We aim to set up small sites, ideally in the space of a day, in teams or otherwise together.
Whilst political themes often make the most meaningful sites, anything goes. This is about experimenting with the microsite as a cultural form, for various reasons. We will also be bending online conventions, fiddling with graphics, troubling typographical orthodoxies and playing around.
It's a platform to make websites you wouldn't usually, with people you otherwise wouldn't, for things you care about but never get round to acting on.
The events are fairly freeform, but a good innings will typically last six hours. We have a simple process and enthusiastic bent which may assist you in taking a site from idea to production in the course of the day.
