"She sees the details. She observes with wonder. I, on the other hand, am constantly adjusting my lens. Or not looking at all."

'Anyone who’s ever agreed to showcase their creative work in public knows the feelings that tend to accompany such opportunities. While still abstract and far-off, the commitment feels motivating and exciting. But as the date draws closer, some stress inevitably creeps in. You begin to notice every little thing that seems “wrong” with whatever it is you’ve agreed to share, and time starts to feel like a countdown timer that’s ticking away the days you’ve got left to whip your sh*t into shape. But sometimes—as is the case with my garden—you just can’t. And for me, that’s been a great lesson.'

The creative process, delightfully described by @willak. What if messiness 𝘪𝘴 freedom?

I recently got to talk to @willak for the series “Ecologies of Entanglement” about why I’m obsessed with moth camouflage, pollinator relationships as a form of ecological cognition, how technical systems can be living systems, and more! Interview now on @AREdotNA, check it out 🦋

"At some point I think we’ll fully realize that what’s happening in the natural world is more computationally efficient, inventive, and resilient than anything we could create from silicon."

[Pioneer Works @PioneerWorks_]

What do plants know? In anticipation of Zoë Schlanger (@zoeschlanger)’s forthcoming book, The Light Eaters—out next month from @HarperCollins—Willa Köerner (@willak) sat down with the author to discuss the collective, connective intelligence of plants. https://t.co/3B8XzCeBN3

@chaykak in thinking about this, i'm realizing that all the websites I type into the URL bar on my laptop are tools (gmail, gdocs, figma, wordpress, etc)

and all the ones I tend to visit on my phone are for the consumption of content/media (reddit, youtube, IG, X)--mostly as apps
