Digital Garden

This website is my digital garden, a half-blog-half-wiki! Here, you'll find my ever-changing Working Notes⁵² and logs of my Library⁴¹ , AntiLibrary⁷² , Movies³⁴ , Series¹² , Coffee¹¹ and WebFound¹⁴

Now

I am jotting down more notes in my notebook, experimenting with journaling styles for clarity and calmness. I will be focusing more on my working notes, and building more notes or outcomes from them. I am spending time with Claude, creating small, interesting web products.

After the Wayanad landslide that claimed 400+ lives, I’m offering design mentoring to support relief efforts, with all proceeds to CMDRF. Topmate has generously agreed to match the donations.

I offer coaching on design thinking and problem solving. If you need a design collaborator for small, fun projects, feel free to contact me.
