Complex things, explained lightly
I tell stories with words and drawings, and take your tangled, technical, nobody-can-explain-it ideas and turn them into pictures and sentences people can feel and remember on the walk back to their desk.
I have always been drawn to illustration and writing — and to the creativity that ties them together. After a bachelor's degree in Text and Copywriting from Westerdals, and many years as a web designer and developer, I now work as a UX and service designer, focusing on digital transformation and on helping organizations explain complexity in a visual, simple and playful way. Do you need something complicated explained? Or just want to draw and think together? I'd love to hear from you.
karisabine@gmail.comThings that inspire me
Poetry
The fewest words that still hold the feeling.
Comics
Pictures and sentences working together — Scott McCloud's Understanding Comics.
Fictional characters
A face for an idea, specific enough that it sticks.
The physical world
People and stories close enough to see and feel.
Philosophy
I just discovered Amanda Askell's work shaping the character and personality of Claude — giving an AI a way of being turns out to be as much philosophy as engineering.
The old days
Vintage, classic, analog and worn-in — the quiet pull of simpler times.
