CRAFTING CALM AND CONNECTED DEVICES

Leave it to Portland. In a day and age where more and more solutions are going for faster, slicker, and more invasive, folks like August & Wonder are taking a completely different approach. What if, instead of glowing and bleeping, the latest high tech gadget appeared to be a finely crafted and seemingly analog object?

THIS PORTLANDER CREATES SUPER-FUN SCIENCE VIDEOS FOR KIDS

Ten years ago, Lindsey Murphy was burnt out. She’d just quit a bruising corporate job at MTV and moved into a friend’s pool house in her native New Jersey. So the then-25-year-old did what so many other young women do in such times: take care of other people’s children.
