Sound the productive ambiguity klaxons

Today is St David’s Day: patron saint of Wales, of course, but also of vegetarians and poets. He was reputed to have helped introduce bees to Ireland. He is famously quoted as saying “Gwnewch y pethau bychain”, meaning “Do the little things”. Small changes and good choices matter, especially now.

Hey pssst look what I found @goresorcerer.bsky.social

I spoke today with a designer friend who just returned from tchg in a weeklong international wrkshp. Her sessions – which focused on riso printing + hand production – were among very few analog sessions amidst dozens focused on AI. Her sessions were overenrolled, and she added additional sections.
