unHarmony
April 16, 2008
In the latest evolution of my project, I’ve decided to follow closely in the footsteps of the Yesmen, and recreate sites. Now, I doubt my final incarnations will have full-site or multi-page functionality, but it’ll be fun anyway.
I’m recreating sites to add social commentary to pop-culture, but the thing is — the Yesmen take things so seriously, and have real political goals. I just want to be sarcastic and smarmy. So below, take a look at unHarmony. Comments encouraged and welcomed.
I don’t like this approach mainly because it’s what I would expect if an individual’s purpose is to recreate a site. I expect people to take a sarcastic tone. The words desperate and stalker really play this up. It’s just too obvious for me, but that’s how I feel about it. A different kind of person with a particular sense of humor may find this hilarious.
