Creative Consultant: So, What Is It That You Do?

Reconnect With Nature Intelligence to Fuel Creativity

I’ll be lying if I said I do not have mixed feelings about Ai art generator Midjourney. Last month I experienced Midjourney for the first time, which was quite interesting and scary. As I mentioned in my previous post, it was an amazing-threatening-scary experience. It’ll be interesting to hear what are the founders’ thoughts and the direction they want to take with this project.

Voyager Phoenix: Meet Omar Rodriguez Villa of SINGULARBOLD.

Interview published by Voyager Phoenix on October 9, 2019

After a year of doing personal work, I began to take on commercial work for local businesses in Tucson, AZ, where I was living at that time. I decided to develop the name SINGULARBOLD. into my personal brand, which I use to do commercial design work and collaborations with other designers.
