IMAGE PROMPT: Wide cinematic photograph of a craftsman's workshop at dawn. Soft morning light streams through tall windows, illuminating wooden workbenches with various half-finished projects - some tech components, some art pieces, some architectural models. The space feels lived-in but organized. No people visible, just the quiet promise of work to be done. Warm tones, dust motes in the light. --ar 16:9 --style raw
There is another way.
A quiet attempt to build technology that serves people, not metrics.
Current Experiments
IMAGE PROMPT: Candid photograph taken from a slight distance inside a spacious, warmly lit art gallery. A diverse group of 3-4 people are gathered around a large, vibrant abstract painting. They are not just looking; they are engaged in conversation, smiling, gesturing towards the art. The focus is on their connection with each other, prompted by the art. The style should feel like a real event photo, not staged. Soft focus on the background. --ar 4:3 --style raw
Creating Spaces for Art & Connection
Building environments where art serves its original purpose: bringing people together.
ArtLove Salon
A 16,000 sq ft gallery in Seattle. Zero commission for artists. Free admission for visitors. Art as a community resource, not a commodity.
IMAGE PROMPT: Abstract 3D render, minimalist. A single, luminous, straight line of golden light cuts cleanly through a chaotic, tangled mass of dark, thorny wires in the background. The scene has a dark, moody atmosphere, but the single golden line provides a sense of hope, clarity, and direction. The focus is on the contrast between the simple, true path and the surrounding complexity. --ar 4:3 --style raw
Rethinking Online Platforms
What happens when you remove the profit motive from social technology?
FriendFinder Networks
500M+ users. Zero profit extraction. An experiment in whether technology can serve connection without manipulation.
IMAGE PROMPT: Stylized digital art, elegant and simple. A single, healthy, luminous tree whose roots curve gracefully back up to touch its own branches, forming a complete, unbroken circle. The roots and branches are flowing with a soft, warm light, suggesting a self-sustaining, regenerative cycle. The background is a simple, dark, textured canvas. The feeling is one of abundance, generosity, and a closed, sustainable loop. --ar 4:3 --style raw
A Different Creator Model
Building platforms where value flows back to those who create it.
Passion Community
A video platform in development. No ads. No data selling. Creators keep the value they create. Funded by other ventures as an experiment in sustainable content platforms.
The Simple Philosophy
Every project asks the same questions: Does it create something beautiful? Is it honest about what it does? Does it serve human connection?
If the answer to any of these is no, we don't build it.
