I WRITE (KINDA). YOU READ. WE THINK.

🎹 I’ve always loved a good brand story so when I received Waqas's deep dive on
Teenage Engineering, I felt excited right away. Why Teenage Engineering is so
Cool. This is exactly the type of opinionated company and brand we'd like to see
more of. Which makes me wonder: why are there so few in the world? How can we
empower more people to launch weirder and cooler things?

ON THE PROLIFERATION AND EFFICIENCY OF WRITING CIRCLES

First and foremost, it's time to celebrate. I'm on my longest streak re: writing
on this blog. I've been publishing every month since Sept. 2024, reaching a
13-month streak. The 2nd-longest was 'only' 11-month -I reached that mark twice
in the past though. The best news still: I've no intention to stop. So I expect
this 'record' to be beaten on a regular basis going forward -every month
literally. What did trigger it?

🎨 We let disposable stuff put us -humans- in a state of disconnection and lack
of meaning. Objects are evidence of human existence. This is why Ben’s piece
Marks of Making resonated so much:

> Objects that expose their “marks of making”, or artifacts of how they were
> constructed, are a reminder that everything is made. Nothing simply appears.
> In a time when most people are wholly detached from making anything they
> consume, it’s easy to lose sight of that fact. I’m not necessarily lamenting
> this disconnect, but I appreciate any design which reminds us (whether
> intentionally or not) that it was made.

🎨 Henrik struck again. Look at that opener 👇 I was hooked right there. The
whole thing looks like a great -and wise- ‘lesson’ to pass on kids: everything
that turned out well in my like followed the same design process.

It took Mathilde, Max and I, 4 weeks in San Francisco to gather 35 people to get
a uniquely designed label with a chip inside sewn on their denim by local
tailors; generating 200 taps during the night -playing a ‘tap them all’ game-
which triggered 1,300 notifications total. Let’s unpack Objet's first soirée: La
Première.

🪡 We threw our first ‘denim soirée’ in San Francisco last Friday and we can’t
be happier. Stella was one of the local tailor. Learn more about her and how
she’s doing some magic with fabrics since age 8.

👕 Shameless plug to start: I was stoked to meet and chat with Sophie about the
possibility (or not) to regulate our emotional attachment to fashion. [if you
can't read the article, let me know and I can send it to you]

🚶‍♀️I can’t agree enough with Patricia's title ‘solved by walking’. I’ve
personally always loved walking. I’m currently in Berkeley, CA and I’m very
surprised by the low amount of people walking -especially in the hills. Below
are Russel's words:



> In addition to physical exercise and my family fondness, walking remains
> important to me as an emblem of the sacredness of life. Humans think. Human
> feel. Humans move.
> 
> We encounter others in our walks. The world – nature, cities, streams, forests
> – unfolds underfoot. Walking remains a primary way we go beyond ourselves.

🪡 The first name of my very first company -back in 2010- was ‘My Tailor is My
Friend’ so this new section by Mathilde on The Objet Journal feels quite
special. Clara Metayer is a Parisian tailor, founder of Sauve qui Peut and
tailor-in-residence at Patine.

🤰 This testimonial by Daniel is a must read: Looking for the Anti-Mimetic
Doctors. The subtitle says it all: “Rethinking Medical Interventions, and the
Courage to Do Less”. On many aspects, it reminded me Mathilde's experience -and
I know she might share it all soon on A Wander Woman.

> As doctors, we know full well that tracking the baby’s heart rate during labor
> has increased interventions but has not improved outcomes. In simpler terms,
> tracking the baby’s heart rate during labor has gotten more women induced or
> sliced open, but has not decreased stillbirths or postpartum deaths. Then why
> do we do it? Because it’s scary not to, that’s why. And I speak from
> experience.
