Sleepers<\/a> by Sophie Calle<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Back in the UK on Monday so these might still be orange blossom scented as I’m still in Greece.<\/p>\n

It’s been almost 20 years since I saw Martin Butler<\/a>‘s The Girlfriend Experience<\/a> and I wonder how you might recreate it today \/ going to have to buy this book on the history of home economics<\/a> \/ the story of the dala horse<\/a> and how it developed is fascinating \/ I watched a Figma Make tutorial<\/a> and it’s as if you’d asked me to learn Autocad through keyboard shortcuts alone without touching the mouse \/ blog posts about the illusion of software<\/a> as driving the world or digital experiences as headless<\/a> still leave me thinking that none of this is explainable to your grandmother \/ having lived in Kuwait in the 80s and 90s, their recent immigration clampdown<\/a> comes as no surprise at all \/ I need to put a health hat on from Tuesday when I start my new job so probably going to add The Citadel<\/a> (1937) to my reading list \/ 58% of business coaching clients and 72% of coaches are women<\/a> so I’m starting to think of it as another pink tax \/ finally it would be great if AI ‘brain fry’<\/a> helped men understand women’s well documented invisible labour and cognitive load<\/a> but I fear I might be pushing things a little too far.<\/p>\n

In work<\/strong> news, I prepped for next week’s 153rd London Internet of Things Meetup<\/a> , ran a couple of interviews for a friend who is looking at the future of her business, chaired a Mediale<\/a> board meeting and was interviewed for a voluntary role.<\/p>\n

Otherwise, I was mostly swimming, hiking<\/a> and eating Greek village bread. 🍞<\/p>\n
