Скачать или смотреть Can Maximalism Suite Your Neurodivergent Sensory Style? | The Spiral Lab Podcast Ep. 2 (LIVE)

Maximalism and #cluttercore have come under fire recently as "pathological," but here at The Spiral Lab we reject the pathology paradigm--even for design styles! Minimalism is often offered up as the ultimate "life hack" for ADHDers, and as an almost neurologically predetermined preference for Autistics, but in this livestream, we mean to debunk those myths! Marta will be talking with Paint and John, two friends from the DDS online community (for neurodivergent creatives, link below) about how and why maximalism really works to create pleasure and function in our lives and homes.

Paint is a queer disabled artist and poet, in the never ending process of healing PTSD and discovering new ways to create and live authentically. They have an educational background in disability studies and he currently lives fun-employed as a full-time disabled person unmasking and rediscovering safety in life.

John is a writer, rhetor, teacher, street photographer, and antipoverty activist, born in NYC and living now in Denver, CO. He recently survived a stroke, which took with it a not insignificant chunk of his sense of proprioception. More recently, he was diagnosed with ADHD, which has occasioned a sometimes overwhelming, sometimes exhilarating, almost always exhausting process of re-understanding why and how he is who he is.

John wrote a piece about his antipoverty activism here:

And he’s collected some of his street photography and found poetry here:
