Refining the design process with AI in 2026
I moved the design process at Dashverse from Figma to Claude Code and GitHub. Design output doubled. Here's what that actually looks like.

Collapse of the accidental megastructure
The system that shaped your soul, what you make, how you feel, and what you believe wasn't just designed. What happens when it falls apart?
I built a neural network that grows its own brain. In two days. On a MacBook.
A designer with no ML background spent a week building a neural network that grows its own architecture from scratch, and documented exactly what worked, what didn't, and why it might matter anyway.
Feeling Nothing and Everything All at Once
Your soul was manufactured. Reckoning with that is probably the most honest thing you've got
Taste is not a Vibe
Taste isn't something you're born with — it's something you build. A practical breakdown of how designers develop, sharpen, and apply genuine creative judgment in an age where AI can make anything but can't decide what matters.
Vibing this website into existence
Your portfolio has the same problem mine did. Here's how I fixed mine — and why you can fix yours too.
The end | Generative Art '22
A cosmic fidget spinner with 90s ambient audio simulating the feeling of being stuck in loops, with emergent behaviour.
Tool-making as an art practice
Tool-making is an art practice. Not the things you make with tools, the tools themselves are objects of power that shape how we think and who we become.
