Welcome!
I'm Patrick. I'm a software designer and the creator of Unknown Arts.
My path has wound from philosophy to programming, from improv comedy to interface design. Each transition taught me something powerful: the most interesting work happens when you venture into unknown territory.
Now I'm deep into my latest exploration: artificial intelligence. Not just as another tool to learn, but as a fundamentally new kind of creative partner. Every day I'm running experiments, testing boundaries, and discovering how these tools might reshape not just how we work, but how we think about work itself.
Unknown Arts draws inspiration from the ancient story of Daedalus, who used his creativity to invent a way out of the labyrinth. In that spirit, I'm charting my own path through AI's impossible maze — exploring how it's reshaping creative work and what that means for our future.
What to Expect
Every Sunday, I'll land in your inbox with a structured summary of my AI explorations and insights—translated into practical approaches you can apply to your own work.
These brief, 5-minute articles cut through the AI hype and distill the most important concepts shaping this emergent field.
When I create new resources or compile longer written works, I link to them.
“He sets his mind to unknown arts, and alters nature.”
