About

I’m Raj, a designer who has spent the last few decades working at the intersection of design, interaction, research, and technology.

There was a time when we genuinely believed technology would liberate us from manual labor and routine tasks. Historically, we always have. And while it did free some, it also unleashed a wave of unintended consequences. Today, we often feel like slaves to our screens, whether we’re caught in the endless loop of doom-scrolling or anxious about the relentless freight train of AI. We seem to be trapped in a cycle.

We arrived at this point through seemingly innocuous, small moments that went largely unnoticed by the wider world at the time, yet went on to fundamentally reshape our technology and culture. I’ve identified twelve of these pivotal turning points.

I created these prints because the vast gap between how significant these moments were and how little they are remembered, felt like the perfect story to put on a wall. To honor that history, I wanted to capture them using only simple words, stripped back just like code. No images, no colors. Just raw data set in Courier Prime, printed in stark black and white on beautiful, high-quality paper.
