Things made after midnight.
The lab of Tejas Baid. Experiments in code, interfaces and small machines, made mostly at night since 2019.
Every idea arrives white-hot.
Half-thoughts, 1am what-ifs, things I saw and couldn’t stop thinking about. All of it goes in the pot.
Most of them stay sketches.
Sketching is cheap and quitting is allowed. Only the idea that won’t let go gets poured.
The keepers get hammered into shape.
Rough, honest prototypes, struck again and again until it’s clear whether the idea is any good.
A few leave the lab.
Cooled, finished and waiting in the index below. Everything else becomes a fieldnote, so the next idea starts smarter.
