Project Indefensible grew out of a series of research and discussion workshops on the global arms business, and the result is the educational website and text of Indefensible. To keep that conversation going, [LUST](https://lust.nl), where I worked as a designer and developer, treated the website itself as a tool for reading and writing the text together — a reading experience that could scale across different audiences, situations, and places.

My part was mostly the implementation, back-end and front-end both. The site gives the reader a set of tools to work through the text, which you can find online. It was an early case of building software around how people read together rather than alone.
