060: Design and Tech in Magic with Heather Freeman
Join us in a special conversation with @HeatherFreeman about designing for digital divination, the technology of magic, and how her perspective has shaped the creation of her podcast Magic in the United States.
Season 3 of Magic in the United States premieres November 12.
Magic in the United States: www.magicintheunitedstates.com/
Mosaic Divination: mosaicdivination.com
Big questions:
- What music best signifies you in a podcast? 🔉 (07:22)
- Is OOUX a divination system? 👩🏾🎨 (16:04)
Heather Freeman has been fascinated by magic, witchcraft, religion, and spirituality since a kid. In 2020, Freeman created the movie-turned-podcast series Familiar Shapes about the early modern English witch trials and bots on social media. In Magic, she turns her sights towards her own home and time travels to explore some of America’s most riveting - and at times devastating - stories of magic, spirituality, religion, and the occult.
Tres Henry and Jake Zukowski are just Tres and Jake. 🤷🏽♀️

How did a video entitled "(null)" get us so many views?
มุมมอง 49หลายเดือนก่อน
Most of the Saturday Demo videos for Cosmic Plumbing get 40-50 views when I promote them. How then did a video called "(null)" get 300% more views in a single day? Did the strange title create weirdness in the TH-cam algorithm? Would anyone else be willing to name an episode "(null)" and see if they also get exceptional results?

With Designer Jake being sick and Engineer Tres doing a big background refactor, it feels like this week fell into the depths of nothingness. While the week wasn't a complete blank, we use this episode to honour the void that can be a difficult week. Wrap it up with us in style.

What causes madness in man? Could it be the insatiable yearning for the unattainable, the ceaseless chase of shadows that dance just beyond his grasp? Perhaps it is the silent whispers of the night-the haunting echoes of forgotten dreams-that stir the depths of his soul. Could it be the tempest of emotions raging within, a storm tossing him upon waves of despair and elation? Or is it just an ar...

In Episode 048 of Our Cosmic Journey, Designer Jake and Engineer Tres hit the streets with a need for speed, diving into the astrological influences that shape our momentum-or lack thereof. This week, we revamped the speed graphs in our app, aiming to enhance the design and understandability. But just like in the cosmos, where porous boundaries can blur the lines between energy flows, we found ...

Episode 50 - my favorite!!
Omg ded-by-scrub-vo 😂

9:18 absolutely rocked my world 😂
Jake it's awesome to see how you are integrating OOUX in your design practice. Thanks for sharing! (Richard Young - C10)
I would love to meet an astrologer named Chad.
Fluking our way to success!
I wish they would just make the app instead of blah blahing about it
"or.....this podcast should be DELETED." Love it!
This video made me happy.
We love seeing Erik here!
It's Carol Henry!!! Hooray!
She's adorable!
Hi, it's Jon Bell! Awesome following along and seeing y'all excited about a cool new project! Keep it up!
Oh my god! Hey Jon Bell! I would love to catch up.
Aw! ❤
I want make product good! This is my new LinkedIn tagline.
Woah! Smashing work team. 🎉
Iteration 38 was going to be magical 💜
"Cannibalism only happens when you don't pay your bill." 😂 You're a remarkable salesman, Jake. Where do I sign up?
It’s less about signing up and more about being “chosen”
burrito -> flour, tostada or taco -> corn 😂
Great to see you two in Shelton!
We can't wait to see you as well, Joe!
I love a pause option.
Clowns creep me out!!!
What a lovely tribute! you are a good son.
The only song in my mind was indeed Fatboy Slim!!
I was 100% convinced it was an April Fools Day joke, but then excited when I realized it wasn't. :)
Yeah, timing on that wasn't super ideal 😊
We definitely didn’t check our timing technique tables ahead of time!
More parades! More parades!
I must have the cosmic peach!!
You two may be the only two actual employees of your company right now, but I believe a bone of recognition should be thrown to your volunteer researcher. I did appreciate the shout out concerning your over use of, " to be perfectly clear" though which you then ignored and chose "to be clear". It is a work in progress. I enjoyed how focused this episode was. But, "to be perfectly clear", I did miss some of the randomness of other episodes.
Your story will be told soon! It’s too good not to. Thanks for the help.
This was such a fun episode
Thanks!
"this soup is too big"? WTF . There was no soup it was porridge. Also, how is the soup too big. Good Grief! So much wasted time reading fairy tales to you.
OK viewers. I was there when the Christmas exchange took place and it was super weird because they were both sure that they each had the wrong present. BTW, I guilted them into sending me one the next year. Hot water bottles are amazing!!
Did you just say, "cool cat"? I love that. Back to the fifties for some slang "daddy-o". Let's keep this list going viewer(s).
Doesn't everyone who is watching this want a sticker!! Be honest. Let these guys know what you think.
The whole talk about decision making was interesting. Loved the Texas Hold 'em example. "To be very clear" i think everyone could use tools for thoughtful decision making.
it's a lute already
Forget kilos and pounds for body weight and just go to 'stones". The number is so much lower.
I love the statue of empathy and the eye of nosiness. Of course you cannot order the same thing because then there would be no reason to sample the other person's meal. DUH
I feel like you may be biased … 💜
For those of us who are not hard core into astrology, but would like to learn a little more; Will the Anki cards for planet learning be available for purchase in an independent hard copy or digital product at any time?
Great question. No plans on that yet, but if there is demand, we would be fools not to design this for you.
Do you have an estimated time frame for when this product will be completed?
Nothing yet, but we will definitely let you know when we're getting close.
