12 months ago @wbbr_ and I started building a new type of studio. Something for... Today... @_PXPUSH is open! We've worked with some awesome partners, refining the process, building tools, ops and prompts. 24–72hr deliveries, small team, human robots, creativity on-demand.

Team has been busy cooking up a fresh look for @_PXPUSH this week. Just got a sneak peak.

The city wakes up in the most gentle of ways. It starts with a few footsteps, then water splashes, broom against stone ground. The canals are like veins, they carry the nutrients to be delivered for the day — bottles of milk, fruits, Aperol. Laundry from the previous night get loaded and taken away. It’s now 6:38 and at the docks, the artery — workers in larger numbers disembark from ferries, listening to music preparing mentally for the day — while runners do the same. There’s many hidden systems that we don’t wake up early enough to see — things that influence how we experience the day. I’ll go for breakfast in a few hours, Venice doesn’t get started for visitors until 9AM. I’ll maybe even have an Aperol Sprits during lunch to see if it taste any less bitter than yesterday after this early morning awakening. #veniceBiennale #UNBLOCKED

late night. 👀 still hunting references of works exploring... 🌫️ permanence. 🗝️ ownership.

About a year ago, @johnsBeharry and I started working on a new kind of studio. The idea was simple: rethink how design services should work today — faster cycles, smaller teams, and smarter tools, while maintaining world-class creative standards. Over the past months we’ve been building the system behind it: workflows, internal tools, prompts, and a process designed for speed and clarity. Today we’re opening it up. Introducing @_pxpush, a design studio built for fast-moving teams — delivering branding, product design, and creative within 24–72 hours. Now live.

vibe coding an idea makes it feel almost real. it's such a great capability for brainstorming damn. im working on a 12 month program for creatives, designers, and artists of all sorts to participate in a space that's too techy, and lacking something more... human. just creating prototypes of what each of the components can look like in 12 months gives me so much more conviction that it could work. since you can view all the pieces as if they are whole.

5 years ago I was part of a small group with a collective goal of making space for designers and creatives wanting to contribute to elevating the experience around sound money. That was setting the foundation. In 2026, we've got a new goal. IMPACT. The next block is creative✊

The Innovation Paradox Undermining the Digital Revolution: How Magical Technology Isn't Translating into Miraculous Economic Progress, by @ajkeen open.substack.com/pub/keenon… @carlbenediktfr1 It’s the most curious paradox of today’s digital revolution. While the computers, the internet, smartphones and AI all appear magical, they haven’t actually translated into equally magical economic progress. That, at least, is the counter-intuitive argument of the Oxford economist Carl Benedikt Frey whose new book, How Progress Ends, suggests that the digital revolution isn’t resulting in an equivalent revolution of productivity. History is repeating itself in an equally paradoxical way, Frey warns. We may, indeed, be repeating the productivity stagnation of the 1970s, in spite of our technological marvels. Unlike the 19th-century industrial revolution that radically transformed how we work, today's digital tools—however impressive—are primarily automating existing processes rather than creating fundamentally new types of economic activity that drive broad-based growth. And AI, by making existing work easier rather than creating new industries, will only compound this paradox. It might be the fate of not just the United States and Europe, but China as well. That, Frey warns, is how all progress will end.

you must be kidding me right @GooglePlay? do you have any actual rules for publishing apps? your communication with developers is beyond any professional standards. after weeks of complying with their requests, now they've decided to remove "bitchat" for profanity! PROFANITY! The bitchat @Google play store saga so far: - first they publish an impersonator app which got over 100k downloads - dozens of reports for impersonation didn't help, only after causing a shitstorm on X things actually started moving - I tried to submit the real bitchat app 5 times, don't even get me started on "you need 12 testers for 2 weeks before you can publish anything" - my app gets rejected for "copyright" – DUDE I'M THE COPYRIGHT OWNER - nothing working, no reply on appeals for a week until I cause another shitstorm on X, finally things are moving again - I resubmit the app, following their instructions *exactly*, thinking finally we've covered all their requirements - now I get a rejection because of PROFANITY. seriously? what about the numerous impersonators and all the other "bitchat" knockoffs you publish on the store... to this date? this is the worst experience I've ever had. without a sizable following on X, how would I ever had progressed at this at all? do you need friends at Google to publish an app?

From Luther to Zuckerberg: Who killed Privacy?, by @ajkeen open.substack.com/pub/keenon… @tiffanyjenkins So who killed privacy? It's the central question of Tiffany Jenkins' provocative new history of private life, Strangers and Intimates. The answer, according to Jenkins, is that we are all complicit—having gradually and often accidentally contributed to privacy's demise from the 16th century onwards. Luther started it by challenging Papal religious authority and the public sacraments, thereby creating the necessity of private conscience. Then came Enlightenment philosophers like Locke and Hobbes who carved out bounded private political and economic spheres establishing the foundations for modern capitalism and democracy. Counter-enlightenment romantics like Rousseau reacted against this by fetishizing individual innocence and authenticity, while the Victorians elevated the domestic realm as sacred. Last but not least, there's Mark Zuckerberg's socially networked age, in which we voluntarily broadcast our private lives to a worldwide audience. But why, I ask Jenkins, should we care about the death of private life in our current hyper-individualistic age? Can it be saved by more or less obsession with the self? Or might it require us to return to the world before Martin Luther, a place Thomas More half satiricizes Utopia, where “private life” was a dangerously foreign idea.
