Hello world! 👋
I'm Karina and I'm a creative technologist, software developer, and designer. I currently work as a new media exhibit technician for the Exploratorium in SF and I also freelance for startups under my own small agency (appropriately called KACHOW! LLC 🗯️ (1/7)
A few of my friends have told me that after watching You Can See Everything, they now find Elizabeth Holmes charming and attractive.
Y'all... Please don't become angel investors please. 😅
You Can See Everything was absolutely incredible. I saw it yesterday and still want to see if again. Greatly recommended!
Did you know that Japan had its own version of the Dutch tulip bubble...but with rabbits?
When Japan reopened trade with the West at the end of the Edo period, they started purchasing foreign goods in droves and were introduced to domesticated European rabbits. (1/5)
The craze went beyond rabbit sales and into art, textiles, and more.
Eventually the craze went so insane that it attracted high crime so the Japanese government had to get involved and both taxed and required rabbit sales to be reported. This burst the bubble. (4/5)

Hitachi Seaside Park in Japan
took a humble California wildflower
and planted 5.3 million of them
to turn an entire hill into an ocean.
