Illegible
The best years of people are currently being wasted.
They are wasted in thousands of hours across years in high school classes that will be forgotten. They are wasted in thousands of dollars for degrees that do not matter anymore. And they are wasted in the general culture that shapes you to think that to do meaningful work you have to wait.
We believe that you don't have to wait.
Age is not a limiting factor for greatness, and until not long ago, it was a regular process to develop your craft at 15, become an artistic master at 17, or write scientific papers at 16.
Society has put a veil over such a process, and hidden it behind stories of prodigies.
The truth is, there is no prodigy.
We take responsibility for undertaking the cultural shift needed to make this normal again, and compress the time it takes young people to work on meaningful things.
We're backed by investors, operators, founders, writers, teachers, and artists.
