Ep. 3 : Apple and the current state of affairs (From 2021)

Ep. 3 : Apple and the current state of affairs (From 2021)

Some Summary Notes;

  • Apple's Value Offering
  • Aural + Oral User Experiences with Siri etc. and developing mental models
  • Apple Music is very weak vs Spotify for now
  • Software & Hardware - Vertical Stack Integration
  • Apple lets others cultivate the soil, then they plant their trees
  • While letting others cultivate, Apple maybe missed a couple of big markets (TV and Cars as example)

Ep. 2 : GameStop Won't Stop (Part 1)

Ep. 2 : GameStop Won't Stop (Part 1)

The rise of the retail trader. Here was a off the cuff response to what was happening with GameStop back in earlier in the year of 2021. I take a limited understanding of how I viewed the market dynamics occurring at the time. Some of the understanding about how stocks work and what certain companies did or didn't do because of regulations are not perfectly accurate, and in coming episodes I will amend that, however this is a recording that had originally meant to air at the time as contextual commentary. It is perhaps the start of my fascination with the design and order of financial markets and products.

Episode (-1) (Beta... Alpha... demo podcast from 2017) Young and Naive Designer on interfaces.

These are some segments of audio I recorded back in 2017 when Anchor was new and hip to the hop. I'm unsure why I never pushed on in making audio thoughts, but I have a series of word vomits building now recently (2021). So my first few episodes will be rough. This will stand as a reminder of where I came from and how we are progressing. This is just me talking about VR interfaces as extension of memory and also some ideas for a balance coach app interface. Get Rich or Design Trying
