about
The jolieverse is my personal digital archive. From the very start, digital media has played a tremendous part in shaping who I am. So this venture is a way for me to document and share a snippet of the collections in this mental, and now digital, museum.
One difficulty I've encountered is balancing user experience with personal expression. I am passionate about accessibility and providing a pleasant user experience when people interact with my digital creations. Accessibility is a must. However, what do we do when optimizing user experience inhibits creativity? What do we do when lack of an online brand presence creates a disorganized, and potentially chaotic, website?
I don't have the answers, but I aim to use this site to find a balance between the two. Perhaps there isn't a way to truly achieve a seamless site visit without risking pushing cognitive load threshold. Maybe I will offer site personalization to achieve the best of both worlds. Hopefully, the result will be user friendly while still reflecting the essence of this whole project.
