- The orb: a face that reacts to her state and her voiceA living WebGL orb with idle, listening, thinking and speaking states that moves with the real voice, built so a failure never breaks the app.Drops Tue 13 OctSee what it builds

- The persona that doesn't drift into a chatbotA personality written as examples, not adjectives, and held in place from three positions so reply ten sounds like reply one.Drops Fri 23 OctSee what it builds
