The club of clubs, at least back in the early days of the world wide web. The optiflux.com domain pre-existed the corporatization of the web. When we first came online back in ‘96, the number of sites was finite, they were often labours of love, bespoke destinations like no other. We called ours our webOutpost and strove to make it one-of-a-kind.

It’s in this spirit we continue to build web destinations. If you’re in need, reach out, let’s get together and make a special place. In the meantime, what follows here is a collection of sites; existing, conceptual and legacy. Linger awhile, have a look around.

Satellite Sites

These four sites are special. We call them the satellite sites. They exist with bespoke designs on their own domains, yet should be considered extensions of the primary Optiflux.com site you’re on right now.
Chicago Dusk 'til Dawn

A love letter to the city, this project unites the cartography of Chicago with images of seldom captured corners of our town.

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s.

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humour, or randomised words which don't look even slightly believable. If you are going to use a passage of Lorem Ipsum, you need to be sure there isn't anything embarrassing hidden in the middle of text. All the Lorem Ipsum generators on the Internet tend to repeat predefined chunks as necessary, making this the first true generator on the Internet. It uses a dictionary of over 200 Latin words, combined with a handful of model sentence structures, to generate Lorem Ipsum which looks reasonable. The generated Lorem Ipsum is therefore always free from repetition, injected humour.
