But our writer insisted on writing something anyway.
“Don’t try to write about beauty. Let it speak for itself.” – Me.
In a perfect world, I wouldn’t write another line. I’d just put up some screenshots of theĀ gorgeous website we did for the new Public Collection art and literacy project (a partnership of Rachel M. Simon and Indy Reads) and let it go at that.
But I can’t. I just can’t. Because I like to hear myself type.
Don’t encourage me. Just go to the website. Enjoy for yourself the sublime juxtaposition of rich, antiquarian textures and gee-whiz, state-of-the-art web design. Explore the featured artists, who are, as IĀ write, completing 3-D works of art to house the Public Collection booksĀ provided by Indy Reads Books. Learn from the elegant, concise copy about how the books will be available for all to borrow at any time, how they can be returned to any of the Public Collection locations or to Indy Reads Books, or just passed on to a friend.
If you go to the website, you won’t have to hear me yammer on about the nine potential Public CollectionĀ locations, about the website’s responsive design, and about the mobile-friendly map that’s in the works, which will show you the closest Public Collection locations based on your GPS.
Hopefully you’re already at the website, checking out the amazing works of the thirteen artists already featured – plusĀ students from the Herron School of Art and Design – and dreaming about the piecesĀ that will house the Public Collection books. TheĀ collection sitesĀ shouldĀ be installed by the end ofĀ this summer, so you shouldn’tĀ have to dream very long.
But then, if you’re already at the Public Collection’sĀ beautiful, informative, user-friendly website, you don’t need me to tell you.
