Maybe for some designers, but for the best of the best, we are artists. We are innovating, solving problems, and making art. If you go into design to make money for someone else's business, you are missing out on the art of design. https://t.co/A4uTz0nPVk— Bonnie Kate Wolf (@bonniekatewolf) January 31, 2023

Realizing that “digital product designer” as an archetype is mostly extinct. Folks who are able to package technology in progressive ways. Instead we have ended with a rational archetype (born out of having to defend choices) and hyper specialists.— Tuhin Kumar (@tuhin) January 27, 2023

It’s surprising how useful screenshots have become, especially on mobile. The pixel layer is the lowest common denominator and ultimately will be the interoperable data layer, especially as AI gets better at operating on pixels.— Amjad Masad ⠕ (@amasad) January 26, 2023

the thing lynch does better than anyone else in the history of cinema is play with gradients of reality, starting from an understanding that all film (like life itself) can be understood as dream, and so all film (like life itself) can feel real + unreal.

TEN THINGS ABOUT HOW TO FORMAT A SCRIPT. Based on questions I get after screenwriter twitter has a debate about em-dashes or whatever. (Which is charming. That’s not a criticism.)
