Hi, I'm Mika.
I write a small, slow blog about technology, cameras, media, and innovation — with the occasional detour through art and music.
A writer who keeps two notebooks.
One for the things I'm certain of (it stays mostly empty), and one for the things I'm still working out (it stays mostly full). This site is the second notebook, in public. I publish on a slow rhythm — usually one piece a week, sometimes two, occasionally none.
By day I'm a writer and editor; by evening I take photographs of streets, sensors, and quiet rooms. I'm interested in attention as a craft and software as a habit.
You can read more in the archive, or subscribe to the newsletter at the bottom of any page.
The model is the OS.
Long essays and short notes on platforms, models, and the slow rewiring of how software gets made.
Read Technology →A camera is an opinion.
Reviews that aren't reviews. Walks, rolls, sensor readings — the things bodies and lenses make me notice.
Read Cameras →The cut.
On film, editing, and the small invisible decisions that shape how a story moves through us.
Read Media →Patterns over news.
I'm interested in what changes for ten years, not what changes for ten minutes. This is where the longer arcs land.
Read Innovation →Looking, on purpose.
Gallery notes, artist walks, and the texture of paying attention to things that aren't trying to sell you anything.
Read Art →The b-side.
Records I keep returning to, and a half-formed thesis about why most of the good stuff isn't on any Wrapped.
