A dense future city seen from a rooftop: towers, signage and rain, rendered as a corrupted broadcast.
Apparel
Wear the thesis.
Fund the work.
Sondalab's tools are open, local, and free to run. None of that pays for itself. Apparel is how the research gets funded: you get something worth wearing, the work gets another month.
01The pact
Independent work needs a source of money.
Research that takes investment takes its incentives with it. The alternative is to find the money elsewhere, in the open, from the people who already believe the tools should stay local and legible. No sponsor, no roadmap sold in advance, no feature waiting on someone else's quarter.
- computeThe runs that turn an idea into a result.
- hardwareMachines that keep the work local.
- timeThe only input with no substitute.
02The pieces
- 01TeesHeavy cotton, printed small. Made to outlast the framework it shipped with.
- 02CapsLow profile. Nothing on it announces anything, which is the whole specification.
- 03PantsCut for standing at a bench, not for a lookbook.
