OK, so I thought I should put a few points down regarding the whole idea behind chinposin.com, the importance of avatars, the fun you can have with avatars and the significance of avatars.

Chinposin was borne out of James Governor asking me:

“Can you grab all the chinposin avatars from twitter?”

I said, “Sure, no problem”

I’m not going to expand on the features list, but the study of avatars has become an obsession.

This week, I decided to change my twitter avatar to monotone twitter cyan. If you know twitter, you know the colour. If not, go there and find out.

Soon after, there was an abundance of avatars, all monotone. The point came to me, as usual, after a glass of wine. But I was amazed how people went monotone and followed the craze.

Let it be said that me and james are thinking alot about avatars. Avatars really interest me and James. Hugely. And if I am not emphasising that enough, let me underline it. We fucking like avatars.

Tracking avatar behaviour and watching how the visual community changes is pure wizard. That iswhere we see chinposin. Tracking avatar behaviour across time.
