Dialing Into the Internet Phone Book

One of my favorite highlights from 2025 was being featured in the Internet Phone Book. I grew up seeing stacks of yellow pages across the city, heavy books filled with names, numbers, and quiet promises of connection. To see that format reimagined as a living, digital directory feels incredibly tender. It feels like a poetic descendant of something once very ordinary.

In the Internet Phone Book, websites are not links to be clicked, but places to be dialed into. You enter a number, wait, and arrive. This small shift slows everything down. It asks for attention. It turns browsing into a moment.

Electrocute.io lives at Dial 17. It is a small garden lab of tiny web experiments, soft interfaces, and gentle digital systems. It is a space where I collect playful tools, poetic interactions, and ongoing explorations at the intersection of craft, computation, and care. Being able to dial into it feels strangely intimate, like tuning into a frequency rather than visiting a page.

The site was published under the very first section, Atmosphere, described as lightweight web, tiny internet, and slow tech. This framing means a lot to me. These are websites that make you breathe differently. They resist urgency. They value minimalism, nostalgia, and presence. To see electrocute.io placed within this context felt deeply affirming.

I am incredibly grateful to Kristoffer Tjalve and Elliott Cost for creating such a magical directory, and for including my work alongside so many beautiful corners of the web. The Internet Phone Book feels less like a list and more like a collective gesture toward a slower, more poetic internet, one that invites curiosity instead of optimization.

Here is to dialing in.
Here is to small websites.
Here is to the joy of finding each other quietly ✿ ✿
