This website is lovingly (and patiently) handcrafted in HTML 5.2, CSS 3, PHP 8.5, and jQuery 4.0 by Faith and Drew Harkey.
It’s currently hosted on a server in New York, but we hope to transition to our own solar-powered server soon.

Philosophy
The principles guiding us when we built this website -
- The revival of the independent website is the alternative to today’s broken internet.
- It’s time to reconceptualize the personal website. Make it less about being like a corporate brochure, more about just being (rather than using the reader as a vehicle for monetization, self-validation, or other).
- Technology should inform and create calm, not incite and distract.
- Websites are getting heavier. We’re going the opposite direction.
-
Learning HTML is, in the long run, less work than the

orno-code
website builders that won’t be here in five years. Build for the long web. -
Stop caring about
search engine optimization.
Care more about connections.footnote 1 - The photos are real, the words are human, and the outcome takes effort. No generative AI.footnote 2
- Web development and research, both, are arete practices. True excellence is elusive and rare, but we always aspire toward it.
- Accessibility
-
Accessibility is very important, and every effort has been made to make this website available to the widest possible audience of researchers. If you personally use a screen-reader or other assistive technology and you experience challenges with this website, please reach out to me and let me know how we can improve.
