Learning how to not give a fuck about what others think or say about me from a young age is whatās allowed me to focus on what I want to do in life. I faced a lot of judgment and was mocked often...
It was tough at first. Swallowing all that shit wasnāt easy. But Iāve learned that it doesnāt matter. People will always have something to say
Itās my life, my story, my journey. I am free to do whatever the hell I want, not what others think I should do to please them
Ignorance, in this case, is the healthiest thing I can embrace for my journeyš¹

The moment I truly realized how much I love @mismir and believe in its vision happened recently, when I was on the verge of losing one of the people I care about most because of it
This personās mother mocked me, called me a failure, told me Mismir had no chance of success, that I would always fail, and that nothing good would ever happen in my life. It was a storm of hurtful words
Normally, I donāt let things like this affect me, but at that moment, with the possibility of losing someone I love, it struck deep. It made me question everything, my choices, my abilities, and whether Iām truly capable of achieving what I want
I cried. I didnāt sleep. I reflected. A lot. And with every reflection, every harsh word, every threat thrown my way, I came back to Mismir, not because of the designs or the products I want to create, but because of the purpose behind it, and how much soul and energy Iāve invested in it
I love this brand so muchš¹

Chipping products is definitely the only way to go. And it wonāt just be garments, weāre talking about every item we can think of
When we focus more on people and less on the brand, a simple chip can give any product a whole new meaning
I like to say that chipping turns our engagement with products from passive to active
We used to just wear them (passive), but now weāll be using them, tapping them, unlocking new experiences and utilities (active)
Garments might be the first thing that comes to mind, but if you havenāt (though Iām sure most of you have) thought about other products, think about @winny ās @chipped ā¦
The future is being chippedš¹

Iāve thought a lot about the tension between becoming too much and staying āpalatableā
Weāre often taught to dim ourselves just enough to not disturb the comfort of others
But I often wonder: what if my light was meant to shake things up? To disturb? To spark?
āØHumility, imo, is vital, but it should never be an excuse to shrink from our potential
Thus, please, stay luminous. Stay limitless. The world will adapt.š¹

I may fail. I may succeed
But one thing is certain, I will always experiment, especially in these times
Curiosity is the driving force behind my desire to explore
I constantly seek to try new things, understand how various tools work, discover why X or Y exists, and explore how they could contribute to my vision
To most people, Iāve probably failed. But in my eyes, every experiment has been a win. Sure, I may not be āsuccessfulā (yet)
I may not have accomplished what others have at my age, or followed the path they expected. But without these experiments, I wouldnāt be where I am today
I wouldnāt be the person I am now. I wouldnāt be designing @mismir , and I wouldnāt be on the right path for me
Experimentation, imo, is the key to unlocking not just the potential of products, but the full potential of us as individuals
I will always encourage people to experiment. Alwaysš¹

The days when I simply endure are the ones people least clap for
But they matter just as much, maybe even more
They are the days when everything inside me says leave, but I show up anyway, when every fiber says quit
Thereās a quiet brilliance in that. If youāre in the thick of it, I see you. I am here. Youāre not alone!š¹

Interviewing Santiago and Clementine for Storied Strokes was a true gift ( @duodomusica )
Their love for music, storytelling, and community reminds me why we, as people, have this desire to create in the first place, not just to be seen, but to connect
āØIf youāve ever wondered how music can heal, transform, and rebel all at once, their story is worth hearing. Oh⦠and a live and exclusive surprise may await you there as well!

AI is ushering in the era of designers
imo, knowing how to design will become more valuable than knowing how to code. I'm not saying that code won't matter; without it, there can be no design
But to make a product successful, the design will play a more significant role. With AI, any idea, at least at the level of an MVP, can be brought to life
What will truly set a product apart is its design
Ideally, I would master both, but if I had to choose just one, Iād go for designš¹

I think the textual narrative I am sharing today speaks to something many of us feel but rarely name
The piece is called āThe Metal Roseš¹.āItās a reflection on anonymity, overexposure, and what it means to protect our inner lives in a world that constantly demands visibility
I talk about how todayās culture pushes us to perform, to share everything, to always be seen, and why stepping back, even just a little, can be an act of strength
Itās not about disappearing. Itās about choosing presence over performance. Boundaries over burnout. Wholeness over validation
MF DOOMās mask was the spark behind this. A symbol of resistance in an age of constant display. And through that symbol, I try to explore what it means to stay true to yourself... quietly, fully, intentionally
Iād love for you to read it. And even more, to share your thoughts
Because I think this conversation matters now more than ever

I am happy and honored to announce that Iāve just won first prize in the Fountain writing competition!
āThe Last Heartās Danceā pesents a message Iāve yearned to share with the world, with no expectations of winning. I didnāt think it would resonate so deeply with others, but somehow, it did. And that means more to me than words can fully express
And perhaps the most beautiful part of this experience is that I didnāt just receive a prize myself, one of my greatest friends, a person I appreciate far more than she even knows, @!16244 , was also awarded!
We are winning together, and that fills my heart with so much joy
I also want to give a heartfelt shoutout to @jessyjeanne , because she was the one who shared this competition with me in the first place. If it werenāt for her, I might have ended up posting the piece somewhere else, and none of this might have happened
My friends are the best!!!

Recently, the person I was working with to manufacture @mismir ās garments turned out to be a scammer
He dragged things out, only to take money from the company heād been working with (he even sold them some bogus thesis ā they kept working with him because they liked my project)
He gave me different prices than what I ended up paying to get the garments delivered, didnāt honor the agreements in the contract (now I have to pay even more to have the garments finished - printing, chipping ), and did a bunch of other things that arenāt even worth mentioning
Iām pissed. I still am. Iām frustrated with myself for not realizing this sooner and taking action. Lesson learned
The best part is that the garments are finally on their way after all this hassle, and will soon be available to orderš¹

Mismir has shown me that only by following my heart can I find something that excites me and brings me joy
Over the past four years, Iāve invested in @mismir without earning a dime, or having to find other ways to make a living
Yet, Iāve never given up because the purpose, passion, and love I have for this project are what keep me alive
Everything that I do today brings me happiness and clarity in many aspects of my life
It has opened doors to new journeys that I might never have explored if I had been guided solely by logic rather than passion
I don't know what you do or what you aspire to do, but I encourage you to pause and reflect on whether you truly love what you're doing
Consider if there is something else you would pursue for free that might bring you even greater happiness and fulfillment
If you discover such a passion, find the courage within yourself to overcome the fears holding you back and embark on that journey
You only have one life to live, don't just exist in itā¦š¹

Weāre told to chase power, money, perfection.
But weāre rarely told the truth, that the real flex is kindness.
Not performative kindness.
Not branded, packaged, hashtagged kindness.
But the real, quiet, everyday kind.
The kind that doesnāt ask for anything back.
The kind that listens. That sees. That holds space. That remembers.
We think we need to change the world by being louder.
But sometimes, all it takes is being softer. Being present.
Mismir isnāt just about what you wear.
Itās about how you live.
How you show up.
How you leave people feeling after you've left the room.
Because in a world that constantly demands more, It costs nothing to be kind.
Free, but priceless.

The talk of purpose used to annoy me because it was everywhere, but now it resonates so much because it's true
People crave meaning. We don't just want to succeed; we want to feel that what we're doing matters. Purpose gives us that. It connects us to something bigger than ourselves
And when you're operating from that place, everything starts to fall into place. You attract the right people, opportunities, and energy to make your vision a reality
For me, @mismir is a testament to that truth. It's far from perfect, and I have a long way to go, but it's built on a foundation of passion and purpose. That foundation has already opened doors I couldn't have forced open before, no matter how hard I tried
It's shown me that when we put soul into our work, it resonates with others. People want to support something that feels real, something that inspires them (think about yourself)
And that's, imo, the power of purpose, it not only fuels us but also creates a ripple effect that touches everyone around usš¹

A short reflection on what happens when we bring others down, especially online where this behavior is increasingly common:
Living in a critical, devaluing way is like building a house on sand
Each time you attempt to lower someone elseās worth, you lower your own. It becomes an endless cycle: the more you criticize others, the harder it becomes to build a positive foundation for yourself
Itās a losing game. You canāt win. Every second spent bringing someone down is a second stolen from improving yourself, healing, and finding your own purpose
True strength doesnāt come from devaluing others; it comes from facing your own insecurities, acknowledging them, and choosing to rise above them
Thereās no quick fix. It demands courage to break free from the cage of ego and be vulnerable with yourself. But the reward is worth itš¹

The strongest form of strength I've found is often the quietest
It rarely shows up in loud victories or polished stories
It lives under the rubble of fear and doubt. It hums when I have nothing left to prove, but still choose to move forward anyway
We have to become aware of it, to hear it. And when we do, we need to trust it
Because itās us, coming back to ourselvesš¹

The biggest lesson I took from this episode of Storied Strokes is this:
āØBeing an artist isnāt about fitting into a box. Itās about becoming your own languageāØ
@eliankutse journey, from images to sound to digital realms, made me realize that creativity is bigger than a medium
Itās a way of being. A way of seeing, hearing, and feeling differently

āØThank you, Eli!š¹

Art is more than just a visual experience, itās a conversation between the creator and the observer, a bridge between moments and meaning.
In the fourth edition of Season 3 of Storied Strokes I had the privilege to sit down with @eliankutse , a multifaceted artist whose journey began not with a brush or a pencil, but with an appreciation for the world around him.
From his early fascination with imagery to his exploration of photography, digital manipulation, and even sound, Eli has shaped a creative identity rooted in storytelling.
We dive into the essence of his work, the evolution of his artistic style, and the moments that inspire him.
Beyond technique and aesthetics, Eli shares his perspective on individuality, the role of artists in shaping culture, and the intersection of art with emerging technologies like AI and blockchain.

Weāre quick to notice imperfections, a scar here, an awkward habit there, or a choice we regret
Yet, I believe these judgments often reflect societyās ideals more than they reveal anything about our true selves
We label these aspects as āflawsā because weāve internalized an impossible standard, one that doesnāt account for the richness of our humanity
These so-called flaws arenāt deficiencies; theyāre what make us who we truly are
They are the proof of a life lived authentically and the ink with which our real story is written
Consider the small quirks you carry with you, maybe itās a stutter, an introverted nature, or a tendency to overthink
If you were to ask most people in society, theyād tell you they want to be noticed, to stand out
But how does one stand out in a world that so often rewards conformity? Authenticity. And what makes us truly authentic? Our flaws
The traits we think we lack or arenāt pleased with are often the very ones that set us apartš¹

imo there is no future for fashion without tech. They have been intertwined for so long, and this relationship will continue to evolve

It's natural to carry pieces of it. Sometimes it feels like a well-worn coat that grows more comfortable over time

What happens when the coat becomes too heavy?
When the weight of old mistakes, missed opportunities, or painful memories begins to define not just who we are or what we do today, but who we believe we're capable of becoming or doing tomorrow?š¹

Today, many relationships, both with others and even with ourselves, have become transactional rather than relational. One of the things that could shift this dynamic is shared vulnerability
It allows us to move beyond the superficial (the transactional) and connect more meaningfully and deeply with those around us (the relational)
But understanding this shared vulnerability also helps us connect more deeply with ourselves, guiding us toward paths we might not have otherwise embarked onš¹

What role does human connection play in an era where machines can think, respond, and even emulate emotion?
One of the biggest ironies of our time imo, is that while technology promises to bring us closer, it often pushes us further apart
The more we rely on AI to fulfill social and emotional needs, the more we risk losing what makes human relationships meaningful
Now, more than ever, I believe that human connection is not just important, it is essential for preserving our sense of self, our collective empathy, and the richness of our shared experiencesš¹

@selenevisions for a deep and insightful conversation that explored not just art but life itself.
Our deep and meaningful discussion explores the intricate relationship between art and personal identity, examining how challenges and experiences shape an artistās journey.
We discuss the importance of collaboration, the influence of social media and cancel culture, and the pursuit of perfection in art.
We highlight the need for self-acceptance and the value of connecting with others through authentic artistic expression.
The journey of creating art is a continuous evolution. Adversity can be a powerful source of inspiration. Perfectionism can stifle creativity and should be reframed.
Just a few of the key takeaways from our conversationā¦

If asked how the future of fashion will be written, my answer is always the same:
It will be crafted not just in fabric and thread, but in code
Whether we welcome it or not, we are undergoing a revolution in fashion, and as unconventional as it may seem, it is digital
This revolution imo, promises a world
where creativity knows no limits and where the narrative behind our clothes is as significant as the garments themselvesš¹

Kindness is perhaps my biggest strength, and in the eyes of others, my biggest weakness, as this is how the world portrays it
But from my own experience, it takes a lot of strength to be kind, especially when at each taken step you are faced with negativity
Being kind doesn't mean tolerating bad behavior or ignoring your boundaries
It means choosing to see humanity in others, even when it's hard
It means recognizing that everyone is fighting their own battles, just like youš¹

Curiosity is a defining trait of mine. From the moment I was born, I've been driven by a desire to question everything I hear or read
Iāve always sought to look beyond the surface, to explore the deeper layers of the things that shape my understanding of the world and myself
This inherent curiosity has been a guiding force in my life, pushing me to uncover aspects of myself I never knew existed
It has led me to create things that have brought me closer to my dreams and opened doors to opportunities that once seemed out of reach
Through this curiosity, Iāve connected with people from all corners of the globe and, more importantly, formed meaningful friendships with those who were once just names on a screen or individuals I admired from afar
It has been the catalyst for shaping a path that aligns with my true desires, not just what I thought I should follow

Fashion isnāt just about being seen.
Itās about being felt, by yourself, first and foremost.
Every time you wear something, it leaves an imprint.
Not just on your skin, but on your spirit.
The stories youāve lived in it.
The places youāve walked.
The moments youāve held onto, or let go of.
At Mismir, we donāt see garments as fabric.
We see them as mirrors.
Reflections of your essence. Extensions of your rhythm.
Alive with your energy, your scars, your victories, your questions.
You donāt wear it to impress.
You wear it to express.
To remember who you are, or to become who you were always meant to be.
This is fashion you live.
Day by day. Breath by breath. Choice by choice.
You donāt just wear the brand.
