/lounge Season 3 starts in TWO DAYS 🥲

We've got some sick Designers ready to share their earned secrets and all weekend they'll intro themselves by answering:

1. How did they discover Farcaster?
2. Top 3 Design Career Highlights
3. What are they working on?
4. What design work in the wild inspired them this month?

Thanks @cameron for putting some amazing designers in the /lounge

My cofounder @jpren.eth introduced me to Farcaster in 2022. I felt the pain of building on Twitter's API a few years ago and was immediately intrigued by Farcaster's openness.

Three highlights:

1. Self-taught designer (my background was in aerospace engineering)
2. Designed an app for an optical ground station for the German Aerospace Center
3. Designed edtech products used by 95% of schools in the US

I'm currently working on /frens, though mostly in an engineering capacity these days.

One thing that inspired me this month:

Claude Artifacts! On the surface, it looks deceptively simple, but it really stands out with complex prompts. It's a great reminder that a product can be simple yet immensely powerful.
