(Future Text Lab — 29 June 2026) [Intro — bass walks in, brushes] [Female]Frode filmed an Apple vision Pro session over coffee with Jon —the nodes have colour now, and text on either end.

May ’26

Where We Started The month opened with Dave Millard’s guest session, written up on 1 May, exploring AI as a spatial co-agent reached through MCP. The first Monday session on 4 May centred on a live demo of Author on Vision Pro alongside the maturing Origami Text format.

Naming & Figure & GroundAI: Summary This wide-ranging session, held in the hours before Apple‘s Worldwide Developer Conference, circled around a single underlying question: what is the right relationship between a person, their knowledge, and a designed space — physical or in XR.
