What's live this month.

A short, dated note on the work moving through Kutuhala Studio, Umwelten Institute, and SOMA Systems — what's open, what's being built, and what I'm reading alongside it.

  • NowExploring

    Caregiver capacity infrastructure

    Through Kutuhala Studio field research and Umwelten Institute evidence framing — how the system would look if it noticed when caregivers were nearing depletion, and responded before crisis.

  • NowBuilding

    Somatag second-generation prototype

    Through SOMA Systems. Tightening the loop between physiological signal and regulating response. Smaller form factor, longer-arc wear study.

  • NowConvening

    Adaptive healthcare environments working group

    Through Umwelten Institute. A small group of practitioners thinking about clinical spaces that respond to human state, not just throughput.

  • NowDeveloping

    Future-care infrastructure concepts

    For Stanford Biodesign and aligned healthcare innovation opportunities — long-horizon concept development on the systems, services, and environments care will need next.

  • RecentReading

    Matter and Desire — Andreas Weber

    On the biology of relationship; reframing how care is even defined.

  • RecentWriting

    Notes on participation as a design primitive

    Drafting the longer essay that ties the six case studies together.
