Seeing connections where others see categories

notes&things started as a simple idea: what if all the seemingly unrelated thoughts, questions, projects, and conversations in my life had a shared space to live? This site is that space. A home for dialogue across disciplines and deep dives into the things I'm curious about — whether that's the future of humanoid robotics, the quiet intellectual pull of Catholic mysticism, building a board game from scratch, or rethinking how we live and work in a world that's changing fast. It's part lab notebook, part fireside chat.

Some pieces and posts will be interviews with people building or thinking in compelling ways. Others will be solo reflections or notes from projects I'm working on — from newsletters to investing strategies to app experiments. At its core, Notes& is about seeing connections where others see categories. It's about staying intellectually awake. And it's a reminder that unfinished thoughts are still worth sharing. If someone gets something positive out of it, then it's accomplished a little bit of what I hope for. Cheers to learning, exploring and adventure!
