Search, sort, and re-categorize my thesis work. I’ve helpfully, subjectively, tagged each project with keywords relating to modes, moods and subject matter. (And since every project here could be tagged with “satire,” none of them are.)

Select a tag, hit the sort button and the magic of computers will reset the list to the right to show which projects connect to each other through that particular thread.

I’ve also included fields to show work by semester, course and medium. So it is indeed possible to discover just how snarky I was during the Fall of 2006.

Warning: It might be best to only sort on 1 or 2 selections at a time. Choose too many options, and you’ll most likely be left with nothing. You can start fresh by sorting on a full spread of blank fields.
