AMAZON DESIGN VET CAN'T SHAKE DESIRE TO CREATE ART AND MUSIC, SO HE LEFT TO BUILD A NEW VR EXPERIENCE

Summary from the TLDR Design newsletter

After nearly nine years at Amazon, Grant Hinkson left his design engineering role to pursue his passion for art, music, and game development. His first project, Connectome, is a VR experience that blends gameplay, mystery, and an ambient musical score he composed himself. Now working independently, Hinkson sees VR as the perfect medium for storytelling and is testing whether he can turn his creative passion into a sustainable career.
