Doing ordinary things properly
FMCK journal : purpose
FMCK exists to show what it means to do ordinary things properly.
It does not offer tips, content, or commentary. It sets a standard. Through writing, design, and conduct, it demonstrates judgment in practice—how something is prepared, how it is carried through, and how it is finished without noise.
The world moves quickly. Most things are optimised for reaction, reach, and display. FMCK is not. It is not here to perform, and it is not in a hurry. It does not speak often. When it does, it does so deliberately.
FMCK journal : beginning
There is a temptation at the beginning of any project to explain itself. To declare intent, define values, and make its posture explicit.
We do not begin there. FMCK exists in the space where something could be done quickly, loudly, or efficiently, and is instead done properly. Properly is not a moral claim. It is a practical one. It describes work that has been considered, prepared for, and finished without excess.
