Why is it that I am doing, trying out, being drawn to questions of materiality (of the web)
I think materiality, looking up close reveals
  1. ways of being, using, perceiving that are taken for granted
  2. thinking of communication/ media: imbalances of power and agency are inherent to underlying structures
    1. looking at materialities gives a possibility to dissect elements, layers and their relation
  3. from a practical approach I enjoy to dig, look at things up close, start from a detail and work myself to a larger picture
And what is my own standpoint?
Am I designer (commissions, visual), researcher (meta, text), artist (self initiated projects) or ...
what is my position towards e.g. poetic web?
and why?
going with this: what I am striving for?
thinking about web materiality, go deeper to backends
