- Blog post page is created, and this being thus the initial posting. Smile Tribe archive is a page hosted on Neocities, utilized by Deen Deon Studios via it's owner and operator, Jacob Xavier Harding, to distribute and publish the various mediums that I work and create. This website is mostly barebones at the moment, while I work on creating the infrastructure and outlines of various projects here. I utilize other websites to host self-created art and music, including bandcamp, deviant art, youtube, and newgrounds.
