🎧 6/6 While developing Orbit, I've been introduced to dozens of new artists, and it's become my go-to for fresh tunes when “the algorithm” feels stale. I’m excited to hear what other music fans think!
1/6 🎵 @BBCRD wanted to create a music discovery service without personalised algorithms, so we made Orbit in collaboration with @bbcintroducing https://t.co/Z0jrDHpUno
5/6 ⏳ You can sample any number of tracks, but you can only reveal 5 tracks a day. This isn’t to limit discovery but to value your time and make each track count. Find what you like, then listen on your preferred streaming service and get on with your day.

@Ayoolafelix It depends what you want to achieve of course, but I find that I spend less time programming for fonts than I do drawing them. So a good drawing software such as @glyphsapp is essential and there are a few plugins (RMX, Speedpunk, Kern-On) which are essential for large families.
@Floutre It seems the Polish designers at @capitalics_wtf don't include the Z stroke in their character set and https://t.co/3pPWutUiMj doesn't include it as part of the language support for Polish. Seems like you'll be ok without it.
@Pentadact You might be interested in some of the work I’ve done for @BBCRD - https://t.co/lWnoBBK2e4 and how random vs dice is perceived (in the first article)
@mwichary Thank you! I have but not entirely sure if it’s my version but it looks better than the free traced version floating around so it’s possible :)
The @BBCRD team have been researching how to engender social connection in remote workspaces.
Here's a quick run through of their latest findings, using videos of their @liveblocks-based collaborative working environment, Colab 👇
Last year we at @BBCRD worked on Remote Interaction Guidelines and made a game to test our patterns. We've now made a collaborative working environment for teams using @liveblocks & @livekitted and learnt a few things about asynchronous togetherness... 1/5🧵
4/5 Our initial findings showed sharing a digital space improves the feeling of togetherness. However we had introduce what we call "shared history" to make this work asynchronously. It's inspired by how offices work and you can read more on the website https://t.co/FAwzaA8S6K
