In the cold winter nights of January 2022, I sometimes would lay awake sketching logo ideas for Teia and Synq. The anticipation of a new name, along with the uncertainty of voting, reminded me of the sweet pangs of new love. Sketching both names became a medatative act, in which I fantasized about the new platform and reflected on how each name might shape it. This video is intended to signify the catharsis of decision and resolution, as well as the endless possibilities for teia.
