  • Inventing the Other Stuff

    In between the actual projects taken up by this Avanceé banner, there’s some intentional thinking space given to creating or exploring items in a fuller fashion than perhaps where some of those projects might travel. Sometimes, this comes out fully expressed into a concept or process that’s mostly useful to others (for example, the SmartTrip Apple Watch Concept App spoken about on a few occasions). These expansions of thought, process, and tooling take their own direction, oftentimes coming into nothing, or needing a bit more discipline, knowledge, or resource-capacity to come to a clear conclusion.

  • Links for 19 Oct

    Coming to the halfway point of October with all indications that the holidays will have as much lights, noise, and perspectives as ever. There’s a wonder with some if this year’s holiday season will land more on the side of taking a deep breath, or just waiting for the next shoe to drop. In whatever case, weather swings and sings along with familiar and unfamiliar themes in this week’s links. Continue reading →

  • Experience Strategy & Engineering Complexity

    Came across a few terms when looking further into some of the problem spaces of digitally-augmented teams and organizations: experience strategy and complexity. Both of these terms speak to both the problem to be addressed, and the opportunities which lie at solving them. However, they might do so from differing perspectives and roles. Experience Strategy really is the “strategy and planning” end of design. It is also the aspect closest to the emotional response of the client/customer. Continue reading →

  • Links for 12 Oct

    Thoughts about the next waves, and the impending dooms, which have been brought forth not just by our actions, but our inactions. Sometimes, these steps forward with communications, media, transportation, and other spaces seem so great. Then there is that macro view in which they are just a smaller part of a bigger narrative. There’s much about macro and micro views with this week’s links. Perhaps even, there might be a view into how we transition from this wave to the next to take away also. Continue reading →

  • Why I Use Earn.com for Contact Form

    In a recent conversation, it was asked why there’s such “friction” to contacting me/Avancee. For a little more than a year, I’ve been using a domain redirect to point towards Earn’s Bitcoin-powered contact platform. Not so much as a replacement for email, but as a replacement for the kind of communications which come via platforms like LinkedIn and others. For the most part, its been successful in what it filters. However, I do end up with some turned off from contacting/connecting because of it as that “front page. Continue reading →

  • Links for 5 Oct

    There are methods and plans for all kinds of endeavors, but the joy in the remix and release is usually more fulfilling to the core of the creator than the core of the consumer. It all works out to a kind of personal efficiency. What’s becomes efficient, optimized, maximized, and/or simplified is received by both. That’s part of what goes into sharing this week’s links that is: Where in your mouth letters are formed via Twitter & Language Base Camp Three-Way Brain to Brain to Brain Interface via MIT Technology Review Data Factories via Stratechery Microsoft Retools Surface like for Productivity Vision via Fast Company How China Used A Tiny Chip to Infiltrate American Companies via Bloomberg QWERTY Days Are Almost Over via Wall Street Journal We posted a few items this week, leveraging a bit more longer-thought items, but will only highlight the key pieces (follow here or on Twitter for the smaller snippets shared throughout the week): Continue reading →
