I wrote a piece for the Guardian games newsletter this week on my PhD research into preserving play experiences, and why I think that the most archaeological games are those that that actually make you *think* like one 🏺

Introducing… (Not Boring) Camera

3 years, 100+ prototypes, and wild graphics tech to make our perfect camera. Only to say… forget perfection. Just have fun and capture life’s beautiful chaos. Hope you love it as much as we do—thumbprints and all 🖤

In 2023, we released our short film 'Agents' with @nianticspatial.bsky.social, imagining our possible future living with AI and XR.

In 2025, the agents are here for real - filmed through CREAL's advanced light field display, that lets the camera (and your eye) focus at any depth.

One of the hardest things is to look at problems with fresh eyes. I wrote about the benefits of a beginner's mind and why it's hard for most of us.

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company.

It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create.

They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms.

I’m happy to invest and/or help

I’m a federal employee, a research meteorologist at a NOAA lab (OAR-NSSL). I still have my job tonight. Many of my NOAA colleagues and many more of my fellow civil servants don’t. I want to share what people like me do. Instead of doomscrolling, maybe we can learn what civil service looks like.
