Hey, I’m back at devcom giving a talk about my favourite topic: Storytelling through System Design.
We’ll dig into narrative psychology and neuroscience to unpack how our brains find meaning in patterns, consequences, and choices—and how we can design for that.

Also true for narrative design, level design, storytelling, and many other creative pursuits. Specificity is a great way to connect with your audience. So many great nuggets of wisdom.
