Field Notes
- Leading by Making — Why I think the best creative directors stay close to the craft, and why I'm looking at Lead and senior IC roles over pure management.
- Tools I Use and Love — The hardware, software and analog things that show up in everything I make. The list will grow.
- The Mutant Vehicle — Photos and notes from the Burning Man art car build: Taylor Dunn chassis, Moroccan palanquin, LiFePO4 power. More as it changes.
- Notes on Sponsorship Pitch Design — What I learned designing sponsorship pitches for the Sphere and CPC, a kind of design almost no one writes about.
- From HyperCard to TouchDesigner — A line from HyperCard stacks on a Macintosh Classic II in 1991 to an interactive projection wall in 2026.
