Listen "In the Dark: The Tale of the Cursed Prototype"
Episode Synopsis
What happens when the quest for the perfect design goes too far?
Today, we’re stepping away from our usual interviews and discussions to bring you a special Halloween treat.
This is the story of Ethan. A talented UX designer so committed to creating the perfect prototype that he becomes consumed by it—so much so that he loses himself in his work… Never to be seen again.
😱
Two brave interns hear about Ethan’s tale and decide to unravel the mystery. What they discover is beyond anything they could have imagined.
Whether you’re a junior UX designer, a career shifter, or even a seasoned pro, this episode should serve as a cautionary tale. It’s a haunting reminder of what can happen when we lose ourselves in our work and the dangers of focusing on perfection at all costs.
So go ahead and give it a listen… If you dare!
