-# Landscape Architecture Film Series Website
+# LAFS
 
-An early aughts basic website recreated using modern tools

-## Description

-> [!NOTE]

-
-In the early aughts, I co-founded the _Landscape Architecture Film Series_ for the Department of Landscape Architecture at the University of Illinois Urbana/Champaign and for which I designed a website.
-
-In need of a website to use as a vehicle to play around with a few AWS services (see [Future Work](#future-work)) but not wanting to spend anytime to ideate and design a new one from scratch, I turned to my [old website](https://web.archive.org/web/20040827234527/http://www.rehearsal.uiuc.edu/projects/filmseries/). Its look and feel has aged well, I think, and indeed looks remarkably contemporary. For instance, if the current version of MoMA's [film series](https://www.moma.org/calendar/film/) is anything to go by, bold color blocking isn't a dated design choice.
-
-This, then, is that 20-year-old static website resurrected as a dynamic web application with a data model to speak of, using modern tools such as Flask, SQLite, VS Code and Git.
-
-_*Note* A custom-made Content Management System (CMS) for the website is in development. Check it out in its own [repo](https://github.com/ggeerraarrdd/lafs-cms)._

+> [!NOTE]

+
+_LAFS_ serves as a digital archive for the website of a _Landscape Architecture Film Series_, which I co-founded and co-curated for the [Department of Landscape Architecture](https://landarch.illinois.edu/) at the University of Illinois Urbana/Champaign in the early 2000s.
+
+This repository preserves a sentimental piece of personal digital history. What would otherwise exist only as slowly disintegrating bits on a forgotten CD in a remote storage facility, as [fragmented snapshots](https://web.archive.org/web/20040827234527/http://www.rehearsal.uiuc.edu/projects/filmseries/) somewhere in the depths of the Internet Archive, or as a vaselined landscape in some province of collective memory has—here and at [l-a-f-s.org](https://l-a-f-s.org/)—been meticulously restored and recreated.
