We are honored to announce that Threespot has won two Anthem Awards this year.

The question of responsibility has been of huge concern of late, mostly as it relates to AI, but it got us thinking. As the zeitgeist coax Big Tech to do what’s right, might we consider our own responsibilities – to ourselves, our audiences, and each other.

We did a newsletter issue on ethics. 1 topic, 3 things. Read the full email linked in the comments. Here's a 2-sentence TL;DR from each writer on what their piece was about -

From Nora Chovanec - To incorporate ethics into your work, first recognize your talents then get a little creative with shaping your sphere of influence to reflect your values.

From Bret Caples - Being ethical in UX design means finding a balance between taking total control and making way for anarchy. Here's how we get there.

From Lewis Francis - For those unfamiliar with online accessibility, let’s talk about why it matters and how to do it right.

Get their full perspectives by subscribing to our newsletter.

We couldn't be more excited to see Threespot is in the running for TWO Anthem Awards. And you can help us win a Community Voice award for each of them!

We're nominated for our work on The Trevor Project's 2023 U.S. National Survey in the Health category; and for Malala Fund's Girls’ Education Report Card in the Education, Art & Culture category.

Between Marvel using AI to generate their objectively creepy-looking intro for Secret Invasion and AI making social media objectively worse for the soul, our "hot take" when it comes to reading, watching, and engaging with the internet these days is: question everything.

We did an AI-focused newsletter issue. 1 topic, 3 things. Read the full email linked in our bio. Here's a 2-sentence TL;DR from each writer on what their piece was about -

🖼️ From Spence Nelson: We're heading full speed towards AI-generated images and artificial diversity... can it be stopped?

✍️ From Lewis Francis: My last newsletter article was ChatGPT generated, but I didn't tell anyone until after I sent it for editing... here's the prompt I used and the gist on our AI copyediting experience.

🤖 From Bren Lau: The 2001 sci-fi film "A.I." predicted our drama-filled life with AI, but the directors don’t have to be right 🤷

The Grandfamilies and Kinship Families Support Network, a program of our client , is the first-ever national technical assistance center for those who serve families in which grandparents, other adult family members, or close family friends are raising children, with no biological parents in the home.

We are proud to support them in amplifying the subject of grandfamilies and kinship families.

After years of cultivating your community of supporters, how can organizations engage new audiences and build momentum inclusively and authentically?

Join Threespot President with our friends from and in conversation on LinkedIn Live March 30 at 1pm ET.

We'll think through:

➡️ Identifying key audiences
➡️ Engaging new audiences
➡️ Authentically telling your story -- history, present, and future

Excited to see you there!

When you’re looking for design inspiration do you ever consider looking to nature for ideas?
Creative director Nora Chovanec and interactive designer Megan Lewin-Smith recently led a workshop for DC Design Week focused on creative thinking specifically rooted in observing and mimicking the natural systems that exist all around us.

We thought it’d be fun to share an abridged version of the activity with you!

In the carousel above we walk through an explanation of Biomimicry, an activity, and Permaculture design principles that you can use to incorporate it into your own creative practice.

📣 We're Hiring! 📣
We’re looking for an Account Coordinator who can handle our clients’ ongoing maintenance and enhancement requests. Are you a patient problem-solver interested in supporting socially conscious organizations? Apply here: https://www.threespot.com/jobs/account-coordinator

Join our teammates Nora & Megan as in a workshop on design thinking & the natural world on Friday 10am at DC Design Week

While biomimicry has long inspired designers to look to their environments for inspiration, how can we as designers intentionally build space to allow ourselves to engage with the natural world?

In this session, you'll learn about the concept of biomimicry and how to make intentional time for things like forest bathing (even if you live in a city). Then put those concepts into practice by participating in exercises that employ nature-inspired design thinking.

Bonus! Every person at the workshop will receive a specially-designed, interactive zine to further inspire their biomimicry skills.

The end of Roe v. Wade is NOT business as usual. Stripping people of their right to abortion will have dangerous consequences.

That’s why people across the U.S. are joining in the Walkout on July 13th at 4pm. I am walking out in solidarity with abortion providers and drawing attention to abortion rights. To learn more, go to bansoff.org

What Does This Have to Do With Work?
The Supreme Court’s ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization harms people of all genders, incomes, and backgrounds — it harms workers, businesses, and the economy. It jeopardizes the future of work and each worker’s future.

Now is the time to support reproductive rights. The Bans Off Our Bodies Walkout is a national day of action to amplify the fight for abortion rights across the U.S., show support for abortion providers, and set the stage for actions over the next few months.
