Travel Tripod
By Peak Design
The Peak team spent four years tinkering with the design of this truly compact tripod. They’re back on Kickstarter (for the ninth time!) to share the result: a piece of gear that’ll minimize wasted pack space for on-the-go photographers who like to travel light.
Choice Words: Writers on Abortion
By Annie Finch
“I was astounded to discover that there was no collection of important poetry and fiction about one of the most profound experiences in my life and that of millions of others,” says writer Annie Finch. Featuring the work of Audre Lorde, Margaret Atwood, Amy Tan, and many more, her anthology will be the first major collection of writing on abortion.
Mirador
By Sauropod Studio
The indie studio behind the voxel-based strategy game Castle Story is back with their second title: a game of arena battles and dungeon runs where all the bosses are designed by players like you.
Chatterbox
By Kevin Elgan
Kids will learn about AI, voice assistants, and smart-home tech as they build and program this smiley connected speaker — and unlike a few well-known voice assistants we won’t name, it only listens when you ask it to.
