:: Mission ::
Charmnodyn is an art, media, and interface company, with a sustainable, local, DIY approach to design and identity.Our business model is progressive. Clients and projects are accepted based on the quality of their identity or concepts instead of on their ability to pay a certain price. Charmondyn works within individual budgets to realize the success of any particular project.
Charmnodyn believes that local culture is the only route towards a sustainable future. Publishing on the web will grow exponentially in years to come, but will be will be prone to conformity, both of the kind already established by traditional models of publishing, and also as a trend towards simplification in the face of complexity. For this reason, Internet media needs to be examined within the context of the history of print, art, and any and all outside media.
Charmnodyn believes that our immersive new media technology needs to be challenged by experimentalism. The future isn't innovation for its own sake. Instead, newness opens the way for the re-examining of old, archaic media forms, and the creation of hybrid, re-creational realities. Charmnodyn is interested in the boundaries of culture, new and old, regional and national, local and global. Charmnodyn is committed to the deepening and strengthening of local identity and cultural boundaries through art, media and interface.
