The prototype is the product.Principles
1. Physical imagination: materialize ideas to transcend the digital/virtual realm with real world feedback.2. Creative practicality: balance expression with real-world utility. Make imagination useful.
3. Play and accessibility: give users agency to shape their world by making the production process easily understandable and fun to use.
4. Dynamic personalization: a product is a living entity, capable of continuous improvements and adaptations in response to the user's evolving needs. Make the system capable to respond uniquely to individual preferences and requirements. If you build what you use, you learn to build better.
The prototype is the product. If outcomes are the effect of process, then better outcomes come from better processes. And it starts with how we build our world.
When there’s a framework for updating your built environment to you, the world talks back in a way you can begin to shape directly. This exclusivity based on personalization will evolve the very definition ofluxury. Because luxury has always been about what’s exclusive to you.

Too many things to highlight in this article. Liminal creativity can help carve a path from disorientation to discovery, from uncertainty to curiosity, from fear to innovation. It can turn scary situations into transformational experiences of self-discovery and self-authorship. In fact, life itself is a liminal space between birth and death. Think of liminal creativity as a conscious act of venturing out of the mind's perimeter of comfort. As comic Bruce Feiler says: “It takes about seven years to master something. If you live to be 88, after age 11, you have 11 opportunities to be great at something. Those are your lifetimes. Use them.” Do not fall prey to the self-consistency fallacy. Learn something new. Change careers. Take a risk. Reimagine your identity. Live all of your lifetimes."
