Why Amy Lee is the Queen of Making Tech Work for Us
Ever bumped into someone whose story just makes you go, "Wow, I wanna be a bit more like them"? Well, meet Amy Lee. She's this super cool blend of tech whiz, music lover, and all-around creative powerhouse, with a big heart for making tech accessible to everyone. We sat down to chat over some tea.
So, What's Amy's Deal?
Amy's company Sequence Mediaworks, seeks to break down barriers in technology and design. With a motto that echoes through its projects, the organization is a reflection of Amy's personal values: human-first connection, empathy, and a commitment to exploring sustainable futures. Amy's approach is deeply human-centric, focusing on how technology can enhance our lives in meaningful ways. A place where creativity meets tech in the most awesome way. Imagine a spot where the main goal is to "Inspire creativity" and "Inspire wonder" – that's her jam. Amy's all about putting people first, exploring cool new stuff, and making sure the future's looking bright and sustainable for all of us.
From Flat Screens to Full-on 3D
One thing that really struck me about Amy is how she's not just satisfied with the status quo. Nope. After spending ages looking at everything in 2D, she's now all about thinking and creating in 3D. That's like jumping from drawing on paper to sculpting clay. It's a whole new ballgame, and she's playing to win. She’s jumped in full steam with her own 3d printer and virtual 3d gaming space!
Practical advice about AI
When Amy talks AI, she gets real, how can we make the technology better? How can we train the tech to collaborate with us and make us better vs. eliminate? She sees AI as this tool that can actually get to know us a bit – help us get what we need in a beautiful way. Amy's got advice for anyone diving into the tech, design, or if you’ve ever said "I wish I could do_”: Jump into it, look for ways to try it out, and learn something new. She's convinced that if someone else can figure it out, so can you.
Building Dreams, Not Just Furniture
What's next for Amy? Furniture, of all things! But not just any furniture. We're talking pieces that make life better, that are accessible when you need them. It's her way of taking all that tech know-how and making something you can actually touch and use. From solving software puzzles to tackling real-life challenges, Amy's game for it all.
Books to Check Out
Amy dropped some book names too: "Being Heumann" by Judith Heumann and "Against Technoableism" by Ashley Shew. Both are all about seeing the world in ways that include everyone, reminding us that tech and creativity should make life better for all, not just a few.
Chatting with Amy Lee was like a jolt of creative energy. She's out there making the future a bit brighter, a bit more fun, and a whole lot more accessible. If you've ever wondered about the power of tech, music, or just trying something new, Amy's story is your perfect inspiration.
