The beginning of glyphcache; started as a physical booklet i wanted to make then i realized i wanted to incorporate an everchanging map aspect with geolocations, became website.
symbols and language used to map underground networks
A time where i struggled to accept change and had no grounding element in my life, spent a lot of time walking for the first time in austin; a career where i was mostly on the digital end of construction, the beauty in symbols and markings that will be gone, the beauty of the process, contemplating the difference between tagging as a street art vs. maintenance information, art vs. information, alongside the cyber-sigilism epidemic. A daily coping ritual that lasted around a year.
