Synthesystem

Technology that supports you
Technology has the potential to uplift and enhance your life, yet there is a lack of trust in technology because often it is confusing, inconsistent, unintuitive and unreliable.

I am working on a new way of designing technology to keep it focused on your needs.

I see technology's potential to help support you and guide you towards the life that you truly want to live, and to be a versatile, intuitive and natural tool which complements and enhances your creative flow. I call this tool 'Synthesystem', because it will blend together - synthesise - technology that already exists to make something that is greater than the sum of its parts.

Synthesystem is a work-in-progress, and it is designed to be:
  • General-purpose: our long-term vision is that Synthesystem will be the only application you will need to use to do almost all of the tasks that you use a computer for.
  • Reliable: it remembers each change you make to any of your items as you make it, so you never have to manually save your work. Come back to what you were doing any time in the future and find it exactly as it was, and have the ability to undo and redo through the changes you made.
  • Flexible, yet consistent: one app to do multiple tasks means a consistent experience across those different tasks. Learn a skill once and re-use that skill everywhere! The parts of Synthesystem relevant to each task change depending on the task you are doing, and the other parts remain the same.
  • Powerful, yet easy-to-use: 'advanced' features such as editing multiple items at once, creating your own personalised 'actions' and customised views will be so intuitive in Synthesystem that even beginners will learn them quickly and easily.
  • Open-source: this means that the building blocks (software code) that makes Synthesystem run will be freely available to anyone in the world to inspect, add to and improve upon. This will promote growth, collaboration and innovation, and will improve the quality of Synthesystem.

Synthesystem is currently a prototype computer app with image editing and item (file/folder) management features that works on Macintosh and Windows laptop and desktop computers. In the future it will also be an app for mobile devices, a web app and a computer app for Linux and other kinds of computers.
