A wide-ranging conversation with Rus Yusupov, the creator of Vine and HQ Trivia, exploring life as an artist, technologist, and entrepreneur.


We covered a lot, including: 

  • The similarities between designing apps and roller coasters
  • Vine’s origin story and why Tiktok “did it better”
  • The web as an infinite canvas and launchpad for creators
  • Social networks as countries
  • Software’s ability to alter consciousness and support human flourishing
  • Psychedelics for thinking in systems
  • How dreams are more like cinema than reality
  • The influence of New York on creativity
  • and a bunch more
