> Some things exist for no good reason — only that someone wanted them to, and the wanting was contagious. A one-person archive of beach sand photographed under a microscope. An archive of 169 unconventional games designed for escalators, parking lots, and library stacks. The smallest possible bluffing card game (three roses, one skull, twenty minutes). And a search engine that renders in browsers from 1995, which turns out to be a lovely way to read the modern web too.
