This workshop shares Soi Hong's paper and case studies of her work, and explores examples from art, literature, and design that use classification as a technique. The workshop involves reclassifying, reordering, and refiltering library materials—such as titles, formats, and content—into an index, using these materials as data.

The approach moves beyond traditional methods of design and art, incorporating spreadsheet and classification techniques as artistic tools to expand perception. The workshop emphasizes that simpler methods are more accessible and can generate a wider variety of ideas and outcomes.
