And when that facade inevitably breaks, we often find ourselves at sea."In the brilliant and ever-relevant Seeing Like a State, James C. Scott outlines the many ways states fail; principle among them is an obsession with putting things in order, with simplification and efficiency. More often than not, that efficiency translates into brittleness and weakness, into systems so fragile they break the moment something unanticipated arises."<a href="https://aworkinglibrary.com/writing/make-life-possible" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://aworkinglibrary.com/writing/make-life-possible</a><a href="https://techhub.social/tags/engineers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#engineers</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/engineering" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#engineering</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/smartphones" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#smartphones</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/iPhone" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#iPhone</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Android" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Android</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Culture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Culture</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/development" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#development</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/creation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#creation</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/creatives" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#creatives</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/art" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#art</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/entertainment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#entertainment</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/distraction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#distraction</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/alienation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#alienation</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/screen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#screen</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/technique" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#technique</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/tech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#tech</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/technology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#technology</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/technocriticism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#technocriticism</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/phones" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#phones</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/mentalHealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mentalHealth</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/capitalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#capitalism</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/statehood" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#statehood</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/technocracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#technocracy</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/fragility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#fragility</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/progress" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#progress</a>

Diaries of a Digital DesignerDear Diary, Today, I'm delighted to offer a glimpse into the whimsical realm of "Shroomy Tales: Fungi Forest Friends" and share the creative journey that brought this enchanting children's fabric print to life. 🍄📚 As I began crafting the mood boards, I found myself transported back to the cherished children's stories of my youth. The mood boards soon became filled with adorable mushroom characters, each brimming with personality and charm. Their delightful expressions and playful poses added a touch of magic to the design process, inspiring me with each stroke of the pen. To complement these lovable characters, I carefully selected an array of soft, earthy hues for the fabric colourways. Soft pinks, creams, greens, and browns came together in harmony, creating a warm and inviting palette that beautifully captured the essence of autumn. The fabric swatches added depth and texture to the design, breathing life into the world of "Shroomy Tales." As I gaze upon the finished fabric print, I can't help but feel a sense of wonder and joy. Each character tells a unique story, inviting young minds to embark on exciting adventures through the Fungi Forest. I only hope that this playful print will spark imagination and delight in the hearts of children everywhere. I can't help but wonder which charming character those small humans would love the most. 💖🍂 Until our next adventure, Diary! May we continue to find inspiration in the enchanting tales of our childhood and create magic through the art of design. <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/GraphicDesigner?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#GraphicDesigner</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Illustration?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Illustration</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/DigitalArt?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DigitalArt</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Art?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Art</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/DiariesofaDigitalDesigner?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DiariesofaDigitalDesigner</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/designer?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#designer</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/designers?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#designers</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/creative?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#creative</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/creatives?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#creatives</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/artis?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#artis</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/graphic?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#graphic</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/graphicart?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#graphicart</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/graphics?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#graphics</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/artdesign?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#artdesign</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/design?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#design</a>
