Welcome to another edition of In Correspondence! I recently returned to springtime Devon after a month of Swedish winter, and the contrast is strong ❄️ 🌷
What I’ve been up to

Using a similar technique, I created an Obsidian-based wiki for MetacrisisDAO and this sheet exploring the intersection of web3 and the metacrisis using the amazing GPT for Sheets
