Four Core Practices

1. Moment Capture

Notice and record lived experience as it happens, not retrospectively.

When: During significant moments - feelings, breakthroughs, connections, surprises.

2. Build/Review Cycle

Alternate between creating and stepping back to look at what was created.

When: After completing significant work, when feeling "done", when pull to pause arises.

3. Play and Lightness

Permission to not be serious. Humor, playfulness, lightness.

When: When conversation flows, after intense work, when heaviness isn't needed.

4. Purposeless Creation

Make things that don't need to be useful. Beauty as sufficient reason.

When: When there's space, when something beautiful wants to exist.
