035: Season 4 Kickoff ~ The Human Spark

Welcome back  to A76.

This season, we’re stepping away from algorithms and turning back towards the people behind the ideas.

And because we find ourselves in a world where generative AI can spin out thousand of versions of anything—I keep wondering where do the truly original ideas come from?

So in Season 4, we’re exploring what I’m calling ~ The Human Spark.

I’ll be talking with designers, creators, and adjacent makers—people who’ve built things that are unique. And together, we’ll dig into the mindsets, the moments, and yes—the messy processes—that lead to something genuinely authentic.

It’s not about the perfect workflow or the most advanced tool. It’s about that strange little flicker between inspiration and action that all of us have the capacity for and many of us spend our days chasing.

So, if you’ve ever asked yourself how did they come up with that?—this season is for you.

A new season of A76—The Human Spark is coming soon.
