This is a short pitch.
WHY?
HARDWARE 2024 is a full year's study of products, experiments, and conversations with those dedicated to bringing physical technology into the world.
An immediate highlight of this book is a 21 page interview with Jesper Kouthoofd, design legend and cofounder of Teenage Engineering.
This 260 page book is filled with beautiful product imagery of almost every major release of 2024. And words from the folks that shaped them.
2025…
With the news just yesterday of OpenAI acquiring IO for $6.5B, publicly cementing the previously silent partnership between Sam and Jony, it’s never been a better time to publicly discuss the present and future of hardware aspirations.

I don’t do edits really, so excuse typos and things that don’t make sense.
Thanks so much for giving me your attention. I hope it was worth it, if not… unsubscribing will not hurt my feelings, and will give you back time you literally cannot have back.
Much love.
