By day I’m a digital experience designer, creating interactive projects for an art museum, a performing arts center and a film festival.

By night I’m a multimedia and sonoetic artist, experimenting with imagery and sound, in my community and right here in my own little corner of the web.

Down there, at the level of quantum strings, it can be said everything is completely sound. sonoetics

As we find meaning in ideas, ideas become reflected in patterns, and patterns take meaning. imagistics

about the studies

What we experience “out there” in the world is the effect of heuristics in our brain. As a result, existence occurs only in representations. Actuality is perceivable, but is it ultimately knowable? heuristics

about the website

I’ve created this website as a way to share my music with friends and family, as an alternative to social media (which will just feed my work to AI).

If you are a traveler from the wider interwebs (and have made it this far into the website), then you too must have found something that interests you. So welcome. Glad you’re here.

And, for those interested in such matters, here are the particulars of this website.

Code
This website is hand-coded in PHP, jQuery, HTML5 and CSS3. It’s hosted on an Apache server.

I developed an infinite load javascript for both vertical and horizontal scrolling, and added some WCAG accessibility. It’s built upon the original work of:
jQuery-screw

My image lightbox is built with starter code by:
Juicebox

The sound file player is built on a barebones wireframe of:
jPlayer

Animated background images are powered by:
Vegas

Tooltips are built upon the work of:
Osvaldas Valutis

I built an Apache server with the help of docs at:
Digital Ocean

All other engineering, including development of the animated interstitials, is a product of my imagination :)

Typography
Set in 100-900 weight:
Gogh
Baskerville

Privacy
To make improvements to the website, and to find errors, I use a privacy-aligned analytics tool called Clicky to log and analyze web traffic. I don’t use other cookies, and do not monitor cookies from other websites you’ve visited before arriving here. Nor do I know what other services you are logged into. That is to say, I use Clicky in an anonymized way, where no personal data is logged. You may review Clicky’s privacy policy.

ownership and copyright

The original intent of the world wide web was designed as a place for sharing and collaboration, not stealing. Researchers cite other people’s work, not just claim it for their own.

All the music, imagery and text of this website is copyrighted by Drew Harkey. I’ve made certain files in the research section available freely for download, but for all other audio and image files that are obfuscated by code, I’m only ready to share with you at this time, not give away. The files have metadata, and if you claim them for your own, you will make me and my copyright attorney unhappy.
