Auditing the Peculiar ID/UX Setup
Documenting and adutiing a peculiar (to some) way of working in the interaction design/user experience space When using an iPad Pro as the primary workstation for experience/interaction design, the suite of tools and the workflow is just a little bit different than many. While a shock to some, its not an impossible endeavor. Though, using popular apps such as Sketch and Figma are out of the question.

Notable Reads for 1 Mar 🔗
Looking at one of the last snowfalls of the season out of the window, am reminded of there always being just a little bit more on deck than whatever might be planned or expected.

Simply Perspective
Using perspective of the future to communicate a simply, accessible present Living in a space where there’s some freedom towards experimentation and its resulting analysis often leads to incredibly simple insights. However, getting to that point is not so much a matter of iteration, or even research, sometimes, it is a matter of just having a different perspective than others who might be able to utilize those fruits in a more applicable manner.

Notable Reads for 15 Feb
Resonance… That word spoke to what kept coming back towards this week. Not simply because resonance is both noun and past-action verb, but because there’s something about the way some pieces of work have rippled across the ether which seems to invite something more to the cannon than what’s been given at the surface. “…”Resonance—there is no wisdom without it,” Birkerts writes. “Resonance is a natural phenomenon, the shadow of import alongside the body of fact, and it cannot flourish except in deep time.
