“As you mentioned that you collect artist’s desktops, I figure I’d send you the two current ones I alternate with, depending on mood. I’ve manipulated both.”

“The past three months this has been my desktop. Marvin, from Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, gives a gentle reminder as I work on my thesis.
There is one folder. Inside that folder there are about three folders; Documents, Images and Other. Inside those three folders are files. I keep very little “stuff” on my desktop. The project that I am working on currently is the only thing allowed to be on my computer, everything else is backed up on multiple hard drives.”

“i am an illustrator and art teacher, and i treat my computer desktop much like i treat my real desktop, unfortunately: as an elaborate and constantly growing system of piles, related in content and proximity to one another. just like my real desktop, i can quickly locate spatially where in the chaos a specific document is located (though no one would ever believe me). also just like my real desktop, it is off-putting slash repulsive to anyone with any semblance of logical organization to their life.”

“I used to change my desktop all the time until I got this one a few years ago (I downloaded it from here although I’m not sure if this is the original creator). It makes me feel calm. I’ve got some boring stuff, some portfolios in various folders, some plans for a curatorial project and my general to do list on the side, and probably most importantly some screen caps of Twin Peak’s and a photo of a cat that works with my friend at Rock Star games. It’s a really cute cat.”
