Philosophy INC International Media
My handle (PHINC) is short for Philosophy INC, a project I've been working on for probably around ten years. Mostly I've used it to promote local events and art projects. Now I've turned Philosophy INC into a media project selling altered images of places I've visited. Mostly I'm looking for input on how this might be improved.

I think your images are fun, but -- as a philosophy person -- I'm a little disappointed that your project doesn't have much to do with philosophy. This isn't a criticism of your project, but when you describe it to people, think about how to describe it in a way that creates the right expectations -- you want people to come to your site and think "yes, great, this is exactly what I was hoping for!"

Second thought, is there some backstory you have in mind about how the name "Philosophy Inc" and the badge logo (which is nice looking) connects to your UFO images? If so, might be fun to write that up on the website or build a bit more connection there.

Like, is the badge from a band of humans resisting the aliens? Or is Philosophy INC the invading force? Is Philosophy INC a fictitious bureau of imagination police that inject nightmares into people's sleep to force compliance with their dark dictates?
