A joint venture between Share Ventures<\/a> and Hopelab<\/a>, Hurrah is focused on building software that supports Gen-Z along their purpose journey. We’re currently looking to bring on developers and designers\/creative technologists to catalyze the research and early prototyping that’s been done so far into a shippable product \u2013 more on that below. If you’re interested, please reach out to juliyen.davis@share.vc<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n

Our concept of time is hard-coded with notions of productivity and busy-ness<\/a>. This is *exemplified* in our calendar apps<\/a> and the ubiquitous, Gregorian work-week-view that organizes our time, even outside of work, in hour-by-hour blocks. However, a growing number of people are looking to prioritize time for personal exploration, parallel play and rest, as they report feeling burnt out, anxious and\/or depressed. What does this mean for the way we organize our time \u2013 and for the way we shape our calendars?<\/p>\n

The general shift away from overly-optimized calendars is inviting important conversations about intentionality, safety and expression around time\u2727. How might we reimagine our relationship with the calendar as something that prioritizes exploration over obligation \u2013 seeing \u201cscheduled time\u201d as something that can be additive and inspiring rather than extractive and intimidating? How might we design a calendar that feels like a breath of fresh air, a step away from the computer, a surge of energy, a stretched field of grass, a wandering stream, a sprouting plant \u2013 an adaptive canvas for a renewed intentionality around time<\/a> and the way we spend it on activities we\u2019re passionate about and with people we care for?<\/p>\n

This is our current mission: to design a calendar app \u2013 and subsequently a culture around time \u2013 that feels *different*. That leads with intentionality and purpose, that creates space for reflection and iteration, that encourages conversation, and that opens up a drawer full of renewed wonder and direction about our lives.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
