Frameworks I keep coming back to

  • Context and form fit, after Henrik & Johanna Karlsson: you don’t solve a hard problem, you understand its context until the solution stops needing to be found.
  • Attention and will, after Simone Weil: what you pay attention to is a choice long before it’s a feeling.
  • Discernment and boundaries, after David Schnarch: knowing what you’ll give and what you won’t isn’t the same as being closed off.

Current threads

  • Fabric and texture: jacquard against printed knit, merino against cotton, a loud patchwork piece against a plain monochrome one, running the experiment instead of just having an opinion about it.
  • AI art: what it’s actually good for versus where it’s just novelty.
  • I have been recently thinking about going to forest raves - they have been some of the best and fun places. There is magic alive. Any recs would love to hear it. Mail me at mradul.master+reachout@gmail.com
