A creative studio,
with our feet on the ground.

let's chat

( who, what, where )

We’re a creative studio working in design, research and advocacy. We make work for clients, study the culture, business and technology shaping our industry, and advocate for the people affected. AI is a large part of that work right now. Research informs our strategy, and client projects keep us close to the decisions and changes we study. Based in Maine, working everywhere.

We’re a creative studio.
We just utilize our talents differently.

( What we do )

Bring us an idea and we’ll help it hold together, take it from a first sketch to a working site, set it in motion, fit it to every channel it has to work in, and keep studying the world it lands in.

We publish what we find about culture, business and technology, and speak up for the people affected.

( How we work )

The people who see the work
deserve as much thought as the client.

our editorials

Research informs the strategy.
Culture gives the work a reason to exist.
Research, articles and opinions.
From the people working through the same changes.
( CULTESC Media Group )

Some questions start with AI. Others start with a brand, a creator or a business decision. We follow what matters to people in our space, including the psychology and philosophy behind it.

What does this
mean for people?

( Where we stand )

We believe culture and taste should matter as much as performance. Especially when the work reaches people through algorithms and paid campaigns.
