Once a month, I send out Humdrum, which is basically a short essay on technology and design from a human perspective. It’s not about gadgets or reviews or how to’s or deep dive analysis or anything remotely technical. Rather, how do technology and design affect our everyday lives? Like, what’s the importance of creating green spaces in cities? The frustration of using badly designed websites? 

In other words, what does it mean to be a person in the fast-paced, wacky world of smartphones and Amazon and automation and self-driving cars?
