Hey, lovely to see you again. And a quick reminder that this is Converge, where I share interesting links from the web for your viewing and clicking pleasure. If you don't want this, you can of course unsubscribe at any time.

So, it's been a minute. Somehow since the last issue we're flying headlong towards summer and nearly halfway through 2024 already.

I've been really busy the last couple of months and this is a fairly slimline edition, but hopefully it's better late than never :)

His impeccably crafted recent Carnival show is packed full of militaristic, tragic and symbolic imagery. Both amazing and terrifying.

Photography app / community

Billed as a "a more meaningful home for photography", Refrakt is a refreshingly simple and elegant way to show and share your photographs.

Makes me want to dust off the SLR and get taking photos more thoughtfully again.

Keynote talk

A really interesting breakdown from the Patreon CEO about where he sees the future of the internet going for creative folks.

Turns into a bit of a promo for Patreon, but the first half hour is really worth a watch.
