Key concepts: spontaneous outbreaks of Viridian art and design Attention Conservation Notice: You might end up paying attention to stuff that strangers have decided to do all by themselves. Entries in the Viridian Summer Health Warning Contest:

In the Viridian movement, we're unnaturally interested in design work (as well as our customary dark speculation, weird weather clippings and acerbic political analysis). We've been running design contests since the beginning, and quite soon now we should have the first Viridian T- shirt in production, a Viridian designed object that you can actually touch and even pay money for!
Recently, we've had the happy occurrence of spontaneous outbreaks of Viridian design, by people who think they have caught on to the Viridian concepts, and want to contribute something of their own.
Therefore, I've therefore decided to start a new category for the mailing list, the "Viridian Individual Project." Place your project on the web, and send me the address. I will publicize your Viridian work to the list (as long, that is, as it meets our high, beaux-art, technical and ideological requirements, whatever the heck those may be at the moment).
People whose work is publicized to the list will receive a valuable star <*> for their log-in name. Here are the first three such projects. http://www.radix.net/~kreinsch/viridian/themeproject.html by Karl W. Reinsch (kreinsch@radix.net^^*)
