Double Diamond #2 – Ethan Proia, Head of Design at FLORA
Double Diamond is back for a live conversation with Ethan Proia, Head of Design at FLORA.
FLORA is one of the most ambitious creative tools being built right now - a connective layer that unifies creative and generative AI models into a single cohesive workspace.
Ethan has an awesome combination of skills - years exploring spatial computing and mixed reality, deep research into human-computer interaction, and a background in installation art and creative technology. Ethan will walk us through how FLORA is designing the canvas that sits above AI models, what it means to build interfaces for workflows that didn't exist a year ago, and a whole lot more. You’re not gonna want to miss this one.
Audience & Curation
Every one of our events is intentionally curated. We're prioritizing product builders and designers who are actively crafting AI-driven experiences. In the case of this event with Ethan, we're prioritizing practitioners working on creative tools, generative AI products, and emergent interface design.
We give priority to the applicants that have a strong portfolio or digital record demonstrating alignment with the speaker’s problem space. We post our conversations after the event, so if we’re not able to offer you a seat, you’ll still be able to listen to the full conversation.
Recording & Sharing
We'll have a professional production crew recording the conversation and Q&A, and attendees will receive a link to the recordings in the days after the event. Feel free to use them however you'd like - on your socials, portfolio, or company channels. You'll likely appear in the video (especially if you ask a question), so come ready to take part and be comfortable being seen/shared in the content we distribute via our channels. We always appreciate you tagging Double Diamond in whatever you choose to share!
