The Setup

The Setup is a website that revolves around asking four simple questions; Who are you and what do you do? What hardware do you use? And what software? What would be your dream setup? The interviewees range from web designers, photographers and musicians to animators, engineers, librarians and scientists.

My setup’s been added to the community section and my answers can be found archived on my website here.

Artist Desktops

Over at Artist Desktops Nate Larson is organising a collection of screenshots of artists’ computer desktop images. I have no idea how many of those people can find anything in the clutter, but the best has to be Blake Andrews‘ that he likens to a river with its currents and eddies, and his corresponding weblog post explaining it all.

His desktop kind of reflects his website design too.

As a printmaker who’s spent the best part of my career in a darkroom, my desktop image is of my darkroom tray.
