As you get at, the idea itself is not unfamiliar (the sharing of ideas, building knowledge together), but it has never been done at this magnitude, with the goal being creation by all (not money or created solely by people in power).
A lot of interesting design directions to go with this. Design mimicking a cookbook passed down through generations (worn pages, rewrites, edits), sound of chatter as you go where more voice are concentrated or less, etc. Loving this duality of on the ground, in the clouds!
It's related to authotpoetic self-directed wholness process. The acting part is crucial tho. Or should I say enacting! I can sense that somewhere downstream from your process comes imbuling the desirable bits into your waking life 🙏😌
"It made the idea the hero, not the user."🤍
and I loooove the new landing page, so many gems there:
"whether your ideas come
from academic papers or acid trips" ;)

and on a personal note, Kindle integration is an amazing and powerful Sublime feature.
I absolutely love it.
book --> sublime --> idea/collection --> canvas --> related ideas --> integration/creation (external or internal)
sounds like a small hero’s journey, doesn’t it? 😉
Very real, been grappling with this.
Almost need skeuomorphism but for abstractions.

Love the two versions of the landing page!
This is amazing, Alex. Thank you so much for sharing!!
Hope it works well and very eager to see such a good thing after lot of hurdles!🤧😄
“We were building a tool for people who make things. Who follow their curiosity. Who were tired of being sold speed, efficiency, and optimization.”
Yes! That’s exactly what I saw in Sublime months ago. It’s interesting to see how you guys got there.
Love the deep customer insights that come from this exercise
