That’s why we built IRL PLAYground with and for teachers, and soon parents too.

We will get as close to live simulation as possible, so that learning feels alive and less like education.

IRL PLAYground

The AI Co-Teacher - Built To Think Different. Design playful lessons, automate the prep, and spark real curiosity—on the go

IRL PLAYground
And this can’t just be dropped into classrooms. It has to be led by teachers and parents who know what real learning and care look like.
Game developers are in an insane position to lead this shift. They already design worlds that are immersive, adaptive and full of consequence. But the #EdTech space is slow and ‘unsexy’.
The real problem isn’t kids’ attention spans. It’s the environment we give them to learn in.
Homework on paper is inconsequential. Teachers and parents know it too. If it sucks no one engages. We need to rethink and build.

Kids don’t play video games endlessly because they’re lazy. They play because the environment has real consequences.

Why Homework Feels Impossible for ADHD.

Consider Buckminster Fuller’s Dymaxion map. He wasn’t flattening a globe, he was changing how we saw the world. Borders to one island Earth.

Internationalisation is cultural, political, reframing value.

Real reach = spatial enablement.

🚨Reach not Scale.
Reach is whether your product actually lands in another person’s world.

Contrarian truth: features don’t create impact, perspective does.
Behavioural truth: the map changes the territory when perception changes.

Exploring Languine for internationalisation: not just refactor, but design.

Languine - Localization infrastructure made for fast-paced startups.

Languine automates localization within your developer workflow and pipeline, ensuring translations never hold you up.

Done for the day (London-based).

Tomorrow gets interesting: refactoring with languine_ai

Because scale ≠ reach.
True reach = when people can use the tools in their own language.

I’ll be using mastodon to share in real time what building at IRL reveals: the practical tools we’re making, the critical perspectives that shape them, and how design, AI, and play might reframe the way we build technology and learning systems.
