PSA Podcast suggestions- These are shows I have come across over the past few years. All of them are very engrossing. Majorly short-run podcast series, that can be easily binged.

A little while ago, @ReyanshSolis & I made a tool for designers to create beautiful spatial apps, moved to SF, raised money & got a few customers. We made a product teaser & here's a link to our waitlist: https://t.co/1KCDN9YZ0C

Here's to building for a new gen of builders 🥂

I've spent a lot of time learning about XR lately and collected my favourite designs.

I realised other folks might benefit from a library of Spatial Design patterns too. So here is a library I made (inspired by @MobbinDesign & @uisources 💚)

I'm realising that when folks on Mad Men asked for 50 lines per ad, they weren't being snobs. They were teaching creativity. Because creativity is a numbers game. With every tiny detail change, the clearer your own thinking becomes
But in XR, since Unity is a dev tool, you're always thinking about how to do and not enough about _what_ to do.
One day, we will need an XR design tool that will help us think, not do. And maybe thats the biggest bottleneck to great XR experiences?

In 2023, I got to 3D and XR were my favourite. I got to meet plenty of cool people building cool things. I learnt to explore a whole new dimension of interactions & finally felt creatively engaged!

I've decided to document what I learn :) Subscribe here: https://t.co/cqf05LbaDk

we opened this up to 50 people 2 weeks ago. i just checked the metrics — there were a little over 1000 generations already. ngl i missed making things and seeing how people use them

I love creating unique icons for projects but hate making 140 icons in 1 style.

So @vatsal_manot & I made a tool to create AI models with ~15 sample icons so we can use prompts to grow icon sets instead of rote, uncreative work.

Here are some samples! Link to sign up below 👇

This summer I made a podcast about Noticing Entanglements as a tool for More-than-human design, together with Neva Rustad, Diana Vardanyan, and Shruthi Venkat

My time at @gojekdesign has introduced me to new people, new languages and new problems all at a *whole* new scale.

I've only ever processed newness and change by writing — so here are notes on why this might be my favourite job yet ✨

I'm 25. All my friends are burnt out, so many of my friends are grappling with depression or anxiety in some form. Ambition is important & exciting, but hustle culture romanticizes 'Live fast, die young' people are burnt out at 25 & it's NOT NORMAL. Slow down, Life hai race nahi.
