Patchlight Studio is a space for thinking about work systems that forgive interruption. This exists because I kept building systems that worked when I was focused and in rhythm, then fell apart the moment life interrupted. Coming back often felt harder than starting over. Everything was there, but none of it helped me re-enter. Over time, that stopped feeling like a personal failure and started feeling like a design problem. Many work systems assume steady attention, reliable memory, and clean continuity. A lot of us don’t have that consistently. Here, you’ll find: - documentation designed for re-entry - workflows that don’t punish interruption - patterns named so things feel less personal and more navigable - tools, including AI, used to reduce mental load This is not a productivity challenge or a motivation space. There are no streaks, no pressure to participate, and no expectation to keep up. Most of this is asynchronous and written. Reading quietly counts. If you want to introduce yourself: share one thing in your work that technically functions but feels hard to come back to. I’m glad you’re here.
