Dear 📝Friends of Resonance, welcome to Bro's Log. It's a kind of 📝Living Document chronicling the 📝The Journey To One; a daily practice of 📝Nonlinear Storytelling and journaling that is intended to extend the resonance of elevated frequencies and to elevate the frequency of extended individuals.
Once you read, 📝Sync with Me. I will be grateful to receive your reflections.

📝Table Talk with 📝Joey Spanjers to discuss his "community, content, and commerce" expertise; creating a better foundation for his 📝memo and[...]

Created a digital home for 📝Spiritual Bros; a member list built with 📝Airtable and 📝Table2Site, a 📝MailChimp newsletter for extending 📝resonance, and—later—an application process.
Coffee with 📝Omar Hilmy to chat about [...]

Had a sync with 📝Chad Agate about 📝Lifeist and his personal brand. Making an introduction to 📝Cynthia Johnson as 📝Bell+Ivy's skillset and experience seems to fit his needs.

Started editing my 📝Table Talks with 📝Mark Goulston and 📝Robbie Richman; a newish process that involves the 📝chunkinging their anecdotes into 📝memos within 📝Mythos One which can later be referenced in 📝Nonlinear Communication (email) and 📝Nonlinear Storytelling (newsletter).
Sent the post-📝Symposium follow-up email with my reflections and the contact information of those in attendance. This being the second Symposium with twenty guests, I made some changes to 📝My Ethos and my 📝Zapier automation to label/group people by their attendance.
March 4, 2019
📝Symposium with 📝Mark Goulston as the featured guest; also in attendance 📝Alex Silkin, 📝Ali Spagnola, 📝Trevor Soares, 📝Bowdy Brown, and ~17 other epic people.
Heard back from Neil Deramchi about 📝Spoken With Kindness and, speaking of my 📝Nonlinear Communication, she said, "I’m now becoming hyper-aware of [how my] vocabulary carries a story and a moment." Neil went on to call 📝Spiritual Bro an 📝Engineered Subconscious and may have, in this, helped to clarify the language of our patent filing.
Received a link from 📝Judy Estrin, in response to 📝Spoken With Kindness, sharing her recent article about 📝Digital Pollution; a must-read article about the state of technology and its impact on our well-being. Reading it gave me an idea to parody the 📝Give A Hoot, Don't Pollute campaign from the 1970's; an idea that enthused 📝Ali Spagnola.

Added a 'subscribe for updates' option to the 📝Symposium registration process and sent the first 'Symposium Update' email to those who'd previously attended. I'm dreadfully aware of what an inundated inbox does to the mind, and to empathy, and I intend to 📝Say more with less.
Wrote a 📝memo for 📝My Ethos to share the methods that make people think I'm 📝Superhuman Mail; a kind of customized relationship manager that builds and updates itself with 📝Zapier automation.
Updated the automation for 📝Tipsy Tours. Last night, seeing 📝Tim Ellis' excitement and laughter as he went through the tipsy.tours web experience—a storied 📝Typeform survey—reminded me to invite more 📝Friends of Resonance to join in on the annual birthday adventure. All new registrants will now be added into 📝My Ethos and invited to be present in the 📝The Journey To One.

Went to 'Skyspace "Cloud City" II' event that 📝Alex Silkin invited me to when we met a few days ago. The event was held at Skyspace—1,000 feet above Los Angeles in the Bank of America tower—and was a mix of a silent disco, virtual reality demo day, and 📝Burning Man decompression.
After intruding on 📝Tim Ellis and 📝Jack Lipke as they discussed music festivals and experiential art, we talked about 📝Bingeneering, the people and projects surrounding 📝Big Imagination and 📝Swing City, virtual reality, etc. It seems they'll both be on 📝Table Talk soon.
📝Mark Goulston shared that his recent article, featuring his "📝I'm Going To Kill Myself" talk from the 1990's, was going to be featured by 📝Medium in their Mental Health section. Mark will be at 📝Symposium on March 4, 2019.

Went to drop-off my keycard with 📝Trevor Soares while he was syncing with 📝Will Cady and ended up staying for an hour to discuss consciousness, empathy education, and more. Having met at 📝Symposium, they expressed a collective disappointment—both already committed—were told that Dr. 📝Mark Goulston was attending. This was a result of me not wanting to nag people by email and led to the creation of a 'Subscribed Attendees' group within the 📝The Journey To One newsletter.
Shared a (remote) 📝Table Talk with 📝Jack Beckwith of 📝The DataFace to sync and discuss the 📝Emergence of 📝Interactive Media and how it intersects with the 📝Quantified Self movement.
February 28, 2019
Started telling 📝Juan Carlos Perez about it to answer his question of "how's 📝Spiritual Bro going?" and—in the conversation that followed—this 'Bro's Log' was born from it.
Shared 📝Table Talk with 📝Robbie Richman. He shared the wisdom of "📝That's when I realized" and we talked about the 📝Xpill; a functional placebo in which "the only active ingredient is you."
February 27, 2019
Went to Art of Tech: Vol. 2 with just me and a 📝Shit that Glows, fiber optic glowing hoodie.
Ran into 📝Loren Vandegrift who introduced me to a software engineer leaving 📝Google after 13 years and to work for 📝Snap Inc. He's a burner and loved 📝Spiritual Bro so he's connecting me with the engineer that led the build of Google's internal extension; apparently he's also a burner and his 📝Burning Man camp member "would love this and might be able to help."
Got a big hug from 📝Simi Shenoy and scheduled a 📝Table Talk for end of March.
Saw 📝Elle Allen, formerly the Sr. Operational Engineer for 📝SpaceX—a kind of personal project manager for 📝Elon Musk and the executive team—and soon to be creator of 📝PolyBot.
Found unexpected help with the patent language for 📝Spiritual Bro from 📝Nathanial Roberts, “when a negative modifier is detected a positive modifier will be suggested”.
While in conversation with Nathan, 📝Alex Silkin remarked on my 📝Shit that Glows and chatted with us for a half hour; inviting us to join him at the 'Skyspace "Cloud City" II'.
Ran into 📝Les Karpas who's orchestrating a computer vision and machine learning project for Intellectual Ventures; Bill Gates’ incubator to 📝Build cool shit and change the world.
Sent 📝Spoken With Kindness to the 📝The Journey To One crew and got a slew of warm responses; my favorite being "going inside your mind is quite the journey each time."
February 26, 2019
Shared 📝Table Talk with 📝Mark Goulston. We talked about the 📝Shadow Self and how he learned to 📝Make Space For People. He prompted me with "most people are 📝Human Doings, no human beings" which resonated with the vision to 📝Engineer Enlightenment.
