Open Call: Archives of a Circular Summer

Can summer fit in a box? We’re not sure, but we are going to try! We asked 40+ people what words they associate with summer and made a big list. Now, we want to collect a wide variety of things that connect to the words on the list, and arrange them in a beautiful handmade box.

Submissions due: August 25th, 2026

Email @talswin at tali42@gmail.com or msg to submit.

More info in link in bio :)

i built a captain’s log for my website. it’s like twitter but only i can post. and everyone can react

did i need to build my own cms? probably not, but now i have full control of the system. and, it’s lightweight and fast.
