Building a screen-light camera that helps children turn what they notice into stories. Physical tools for creating with AI.

Follow the prototypes ↓

We made mistakes with social media.

We let technology compete for childhood.

We cannot repeat those mistakes with AI.

Children will grow up with it. It should amplify their curiosity, imagination and agency, not create in their place.

That is why we started https://t.co/XKWEzl1wQi

Aaaaaaannnddd he’s alive.

Well, sort of… 🧠📷

Vibe coding is making it ridiculously easy to make things fun again.

So we added a little drawing playground to the bottom of the new CIC website. Draw whatever you want. Make a mess. See what happens.

The web got way too clean. Let’s bring back the tactile, playful, slightly unnecessary stuff.

Go try it ↓

We're on it 🫡

@emrekayganaci Hurry, I need this before my kids age out of it.

[KAAN @keryilmaz]

AI shouldn’t teach kids what to imagine.

It should follow where their imagination goes.

We’re building Obscura: a camera that turns the things adults walk past into characters, stories and worlds from a child’s point of view.

Their imagination leads. AI follows.

i have never been so excited for a new model Seeddance 2.5 will change how we make content, here is something small I started working on for my son.

step one create characters with midjourney
step two let him select the ones he likes
step three turn them into animation with Seeddance

some of these guys will be our main narrators at @creativeintelco

These are just concepts but by the way I'm kinda feeling the vibes here.

We are still early. The hardware and software are real.

Some questions remain.

So we are building in the open, with parents, designers, engineers and people who believe AI can expand human creativity without consuming human attention.

Our first instrument is Obscura: a camera for children that captures an image, the sound around it and the movement of the moment.

AI helps turn what they noticed into stories they can shape.The source is theirs.

The choices are theirs.

The child remains the author.

[Creative Intelligence Company @creativeintelco]

Small steps.

Real hardware.
Real software.
Real people.

We’re getting close.

[KAAN @keryilmaz]

I don’t think it’s fully sunk in yet: we’re reaching a point where you can create almost anything you can imagine.

That’s a pretty incredible future.

Prototype is the product

[Emre @emrekayganaci]

Your daily hardware inspiration.

A 1970's Zanussi Ping-O-Tronic.

Everything here wants to be touched.
Knurled dials.
A rocker switch with a satisfying click.
Controllers that fill your palm.

Screens took this from us.
Time to bring these back.

The @nothing Phone 3(a) Community Edition won a Red Dot Design Award.

Really proud of what we made, and how all the elements came together under a playful, optimistic vision.

Once again, very grateful to the Nothing team for giving me the chance to design this.

[Emre @emrekayganaci]

The most important spec of the next decade won't appear on any hardware datasheet.

I think it will be: does it make you consume, or help you create?

Every device is a vote.

We need new instruments, for the new age of making.

The first one is called Obscura, it is coming alive ↓

@emrekayganaci All decisions set in stone.
