Hello.Bonjour.Merhaba.Hello.
I'm Oz, a designer of things...
This is my signal space for a noisy mind
I write about the overlooked, the contradictory, and the quietly absurd.
The alarm goes off at a number the body never agreed to, and we call the result a personal failing. Social jetlag, the daily gap between biological time and the schedule imposed on it, is near universal and quietly expensive. Some economies lose almost three percent of GDP to being tired.
You can hide stress from a colleague, a partner, even from yourself. The keyboard has been taking notes the whole time. On the oldest witness we own and the newest surface it leaks onto.
A 2023 US Surgeon General advisory put chronic loneliness alongside smoking fifteen cigarettes a day. The architecture that used to hold strangers together did not collapse. It was redesigned out of the floor plan.
I build minimal tools and run small experiments.
A lightweight macOS menu-bar app that shows the track playing in TIDAL. Free, open source, macOS 13+.
Turn flight details into a timezone-safe calendar event. Enter airport codes and times, download an .ics anchored to the departure zone.
Indie publishing collective from Canada. Short books across tech, art, design, work, culture, and whatever else holds the attention.
I make spoofs of pop culture, catch life being itself, mix palettes by feel, and cross mediums freely.
