An Interface Can Be A Powerful Narrative Device. And As We Collect More And More Personally And Socially Relevant Data, We Have An Opportunity, And Maybe Even An Obligation, To Maintain [our] Humanity And Tell Some Amazing Stories.

I've Always Been A Bit Of A Mix Between Art And Technology. I Used To Paint A Lot, But I'm Not Very Good With My Hands. It Has Always Been A Fusion Between My Computer Gaming Interests And Being Exposed To The Rich Data Of Society That We Live In.
