Muzis!
The premise of Muzi is that it helps people access greater creativity.
What a delight, then, that even as I see it happen (yay!!), it's teaching ME so much about creativity!
Some of you know me better than others. But I invite you all to know THIS: Getting schooled is creativity is my bliss.
So here's what I've learned: The tone my inner voice takes when
she knows what she's talking about. The ways my audio experience can be harnessed for visual design. The level of safety I need in collaboration to do my best work. How even my wizened humor can come up with a decent Gen Z meme when pressed.
And here's what I still don't know: How to reach the many people Muzi longs to serve. How to wrap text in Newsletters. Most things in Figma. Everything, etc. If you have ideas, please advise!
Incidentally, Muzi is doing great. We've got a cute new onboarding process replete with Apple/Google sign in. We've got simplified pages. (Something else I've learned: I use more words than needed!!) But I'm most excited about a major glow-up to be rolled out in the upcoming months. Stay tuned for <gasp!> intuitive user experience.
In the meantime, please enjoy this THRILLING content:
1. An interview with my collaborator, R&B legend Narada Michael Walden. For all the hours Narada and I have spent traversing each other's minds writing songs together, we'd never sat and DISCUSSED our process. I can't tell you how much I loved it.
2. USER SPARKS! And check Muzi Instagram every Friday for a Spark Analysis. (Share YOUR Spark with me for a chance to hear some extra insights on your creativity!)
3. My conviction that your next great idea is already in your head.
4. Some Featured Tiles, cause you all make great Tiles.
In sparkling solidarity,
Rachel
