EmilyChang.com Launches

Saturday, September 03, 2005

I’ve been keeping my life online at artcodes.com for a long time now, but I’ve decided to return artcodes to its roots as a place for my art experiments and personal life.  Today I launched emilychang.com as my blog focused on strategic design and web.  That’s the plan anyway.  Like life, a website tends to grow and evolve organically often despite our attempts to control it, so I’m taking this as an experiment to see where it leads me. 

For thoughts on web, interactive design and trends, visit me at www.emilychang.com.  For video, photo, flash, and other art bits, continue to visit me at www.artcodes.com.

Six Apart

Tuesday, July 12, 2005

I’ve moved several times in the last nine years - five moves, three states, and two coasts to be exact.  Despite these environmental and physical shifts in my life, it’s ironic that it’s the bloggers from the virtual world (kottke, hchamp, joi ito, dooce, caterina, mightygirl, and many others) that have provided a sense of permanence and consistency while my life and surroundings have often changed radically.

After almost ten years of making and remaking my personal site/blog, my company, Ideacodes is now helping design the next generation of blog services and products for Six Apart, world’s leading blog company.  Six Apart was co-founded by Mena and Ben Trott, the creators of Movable Type (the software that launched millions of blogs) and then TypePad.  Now that I’ve been in SF for a year, my two worlds (virtual and real) are coming together and I couldn’t be more inspired or thrilled. 

Sometimes when I talk to people I meet, clients, or the non-addicted, they’ll ask, “what’s the big deal with blogs?” For me, it’s about the power to engage in what I think most people are after - self-expression, empathy, dialogue, multiple perspectives - the same core ideas on which democracy is based.  At its most basic, it’s the opportunity to experience other people’s lives in asynchronous “real” time - a daily timeline paralleling your own life.  It’s also about the greater act of being both a consumer and a producer of culture.  Once you start using your voice, you’ll find you have a lot to say.

Ideacodes is born

Tuesday, February 08, 2005

Sometimes the least likely event turns out to be a blessing in disguise.  That’s how I’ve been feeling lately.  I’m no longer working for the “marketing consulting company for higher education” where I’ve been for over two years.  While everything was a surprise to me when it happened, in retrospect, I had already felt the shift months ago, and should have believed my own instincts. 

If you’re in a position or with a company and feeling that everything is not as it seems, and the people that you work with are not what they say, believe in yourself.  I’ve always been a team player, but I’ve also been driven by the need to innovate, to be immersed in the web, and to collaborate to create new solutions.  If your colleagues don’t share that passion, there’s not much left to say.  Take the plunge.  Start your own enterprise.  Nothing has ever felt so right.

After nine years in the industry, as freelancers, employees, and consultants of other people’s companies, Max and I have started our own strategic web design company.  Visit www.ideacodes.com to see what we’re all about.

99 Windows

Saturday, November 20, 2004

Launched a new site today, 99 Windows, an art project about windows and the idea of looking in, looking through, and reflecting — seeing both the imaginary and the real, the periphery and the obvious. My hope is to evoke a filmic, emotional or psychological state in one short instance online, in a loop.

oswegatchie.net launches

Saturday, August 31, 2002

pic

The Great Oswegatchie Wilderness is 500,000 acres of proposed wilderness in the Adirondacks, NY.  State-owned parcels would be combined with acquisitions from willing sellers to form the second largest wilderness area in the easter United States.

You can join in the groundswell of support for the protection of this unique region in the Adirondacks. The state of New York recently acquired property and easements that are vitally important to this great wilderness area. Spreading the word about the project will keep alive the effort to secure additional private lands as they come on the market.

Please support the cause!

Visit the site Z and I designed and built:
