Learnings

How these projects get made: methods that carry across projects. Each learning is also a skill that agents follow, from the same text (SKILL.md).

I like my projects to exist beyond the screen: printed, held, flipped through and kept in my real space. Much of what's here grew from turning vibe-coded and agent-built projects into books and cards, then writing down what worked so the next one is easier, for me and for the agents I build with.

Building a personal podcast

“This page tells the story of The Mindful Minute, a private podcast I made for one listener: me. It is a series of short, reflective monologues, each three to eight minutes long, meant to be heard on a walk. An AI agent, Grok, and I made 567 episodes together”.

Making print books (Chatbooks)

Make a printed 5×5 in Chatbooks photo book from a project's collection (clips, albums, photos): catalogue with permanent IDs, lab and pick tools, spread-first layout, QR short links, 300 dpi export with bleed for Chatbooks' trim.

Making 100 Songs Later

“Between March and October 2026 I made about seven hundred songs with AI. This page is the story of turning a hundred of them into a printed book I can hold, read and scribble on, so I can choose the fifty worth making better.” Use when backing up a music library with metadata, curating a large collection with several AI agents, typesetting lyrics for print (multilingual, uncut, with line numbers and QR codes), building a scaled print proof for Chatbooks, or handing a stalled build from one agent to another..
