Darren Collison

This is an index page. It holds the label “Darren Collison” — 3 pieces in all — and nothing else: the writing is on the pages it lists. The newest filing sits at the top, which on an archive of this age means the most recent thing that was said under the name rather than the most important.

Everything on the list was filed in 2014. The dates under the headlines are the dates the pieces went up and they have not been touched since: an archive that quietly re-dates itself is worth less than one that admits how old it is.

Read alongside Nets. A name collects by keyword and a desk collects by subject, and the desk is almost always the wider of the two.

It is worth being clear about what is absent. No ratings, no recommendations, no ordering by quality, and no note telling you which of the pieces below still holds up. Those judgements belong in the writing, and where one of them turned out to be wrong it is said on the piece itself.
