The Meows We Left Along the Way is a reflective podcast about building creative technology outside the startup race. Blending ambient engineering, AI-native creativity, and playful MEOWACC aesthetics, this show explores how art, software, and human cognition intersect when optimization is no longer the goal.

Through story-driven episodes, we document the journey of experimenting with AI tools, karaoke engines, book compilers, and personal software—treating each project as an artifact rather than a product. Inspired by Cognitive Adaptive Studies (CAS), the podcast functions less as instruction and more as a field recording of modern creative work.

This podcast is for engineers, designers, artists, and curious thinkers who are tired of metrics theater, growth hacks, and “build faster” culture—and who want to explore gentler, more human ways of creating with technology.

No hype. No hustle. Just the meows we left along the way.

CAS (Cognitive Adaptive Studies) is an ongoing observational project exploring how people think, build, create, and make meaning alongside intelligent systems.

These conversations are not instructions, roadmaps, or advice.
They are artifacts of observation — snapshots of ideas in motion.

CAS treats technology as culture, tools as signals, and failure as data.
Sometimes this looks serious.
Sometimes it meows.

MeowACC is the playful delivery layer — a soft interface for complex ideas, using humor, absurdity, and pastel aesthetics to lower cognitive defenses and invite reflection.

Nothing here is optimized.
Nothing here is finalized.
Everything here is intentional.

If something resonates, keep it.
If it doesn’t, let it pass.
