As a fun holiday project, I created a site called Miscellanea that makes it easy for people to make their own DIY webpages. It functions a bit like a pinboard for links, images, notes — and hopefully acts as a more "deliberate" and constructive alternative to social media.

Starting a thread of classical music I like, with my favourite recordings where possible (links every other tweet). First up, Janáček’s String Quartet no. 2, performed by the Talich Quartet. Odd, unique proto-minimalism. Probably horrible to play. Third movement very charming.
