Ideas Deserve to Be Seen
My Next Product - Coming Soon
Panel of the Lions, Chauvet Cave (c. 33,000 years ago)
Keith Haring, New York City (early 1980s)
For as long as I can remember, I’ve wanted to write on things. Like the cave painters in France and street artists in city subways, I share the impulse to leave a mark and make my habitat more interesting.
Everywhere I look, I see canvases: the walls in my apartment, the sides of buildings, storefront windows, Cybertrucks - any surface seems to invite a little tagging. And the same question always circles back to me:
If I had a giant marker, what would I do with it?
In my younger years, I might have doodled a superhero, sketched a landscape, or set down the lyrics of a song I liked. But lately, I’ve had something more pragmatic in mind.
Compressed and illustrated in creative ways, I’d share the ideas I love most - the ones that encourage us to look twice, be kind, and loosen our grip on things that don’t matter. I’d scatter little reminders - small thoughts tucked into the world - meant not to change a life, but to color its perception.
I may not have that marker (or the appetite to get arrested), but I do have my computer, an iPad and a stylus - and the enthusiasm to build something useful. This past week, a concept clicked into place - and I find myself liking it more each time I revisit it.
I won’t reveal everything just yet, but I’ll tease a few of its themes - a mix of notes you’ve seen before and others making their debut:
Begin Again
In the next newsletter, I’ll share the full design - the “canvas” I’ve chosen to put them on - and shortly after, I’ll open shop.
I hope you love it. Stay tuned.
