Saturday was a bit of a milestone for XIAI — and for me.
For the first time, I got to take XIAI out of my head, off the screen and into the real world at the Naniverse Clubhouse.
When I started XIAI, it began with a single question:
What if memory wasn’t just something in your mind… but a place you could visit?
That question became an idea.
The idea became characters.
Then a world.
Then pages, films, music and a growing community of people following the journey.
On Saturday, I got to watch people pick up the early concepts.
Turn the pages.
Watch the films.
Ask questions.
And, probably most importantly, tell me what XIAI made them think and feel. That meant a lot.
Building XIAI has pushed me creatively in ways I never expected. It’s introduced me to incredible people, pushed me outside of my comfort zone and taught me that sometimes you don’t need to know exactly where an idea is going. You just have to believe in it enough to begin.
A huge thank you to .io for giving XIAI the opportunity to be part of Clubhouse, and congratulations to all the other incredible creators who brought their work, ideas and energy into the space.
The first XIAI pop-up.
Definitely not the last.
The journey continues.
