I had a great conversation with @stephenharrison.com about how #Wikidata is quietly powering much of the digital infrastructure that we use every day. And the coolest part: you don't need to be a programmer to contribute. Small contributions can spread further than you might imagine.

Sunday improvisations.

It is fun to work in theater projects. Although challenging sometimes the creative freedom makes up for anything!

And yes, vertical editing. 😅

It is horrible to see how artists are hostages of corporations submitting themselves to predatory practices like proprietary formats, software as a service licensing models, vendor lock-in 🤮
