Say hi to
Computers used to be fun,
Colorful
Inspiring
Bicycles for the mind
But then something happened...
They all started looking like the same glassy attention blackholes.
They became brainrot inducing devices we all have love hate relationships with.
And in a world with computers that can talk to us and understand us, somehow all we're seeing are work assistants (boring) or goonbots (ew?).
Maybe it's just us.
We don't want a future where even with crazy technological advancement, humans are just sitting around rooms and brainrotting.
We don't want more computers that feel like face huggers or glorified surveillance.
We don't want technology that's a replacement for humans, but technology that recedes into the background and lets us be *more* human.
In a magical world where computers can speak to us and understand us, we think they can also be potent tools for presence, personal growth and self actualisation.
What would it look like to make this?
A computer that didn't feel like a constantly buzzing dopamine machine, but a cute sidekick from a ghibli movie, out to help you become the best version of yourself.
A computer that was colorful instead of boring, helped you stay present instead of brainrot, and nudged you towards who you wanted to be.
A computer that felt alive
We think we have an answer
