"A bit weird, but good. After watching, it makes you reflect on Modern Art a lot lol." - Luba
Three Body Problem - Book
"Great Chinese dystopian novels, soon to be made into a Netflix series! Get reading now so you can smugly get in your 'book is better' line before others." - Cedd
John Cleese, Creativity - Video
"Is John Cleese low-key cancelled in 2024? To be honest I don't know...but what I DO know is that this is a great listen. He gives some helpful tips for entering into a creative headspace and how to work as part of a creative team. The stuff about 'open vs closed state' makes a lot of sense." - Max

Wrapping up Android 2023
In 2023, the Android Developer Community achieved major milestones with the launch of Android 14 and Jetpack Compose, the cutting-edge coding toolkit. As trusted Android partners, we helped celebrate this in style.
Gramafilm Class of 2023
We're already feeling nostalgic for the amazing year we had last year, so we thought we'd fully lean into it with primary-school-esque 'Class of 2023' tea towel. Good Skills.
