We don't talk enough about the fact that most creative software on the computer works by simulating a fake piece of paper and a fake typewriter or pen just so we don't have to think of or learn fundamentally new interaction modes for this fundamentally new medium.

It's here. @CathieDWood on @bankless. With @cburniske and @yassineARK. Imagine being a fly on the wall of an internal mtg at @ARKInvest discussing the future of crypto. This was like that. One of the best podcasts we've recorded. LISTEN: shows.banklesshq.com/p/-82-i…
