Steve Jobs helped Entrepreneurship - living Digishon
We pitched at the most recent iBreakfast on August 25, 2011
while still working on business plans and setting up data/ servers. Objective critical opinions matter to us, although we are actively seeking finance partners and engineers for digishon.com, [pronounced: dij-e-shon] to help us get up and running. Our survival is critically based on the vision as I see it - as fashion will inevitably become tangible to personal computers-your IP address. Become part of the team, and let us go live in the next few weeks ( which will be fantastic). The feeling of building a robust fashion technology also brings me to one of the few times in life, when living my dream matters more than following news feeds about the latest celebrity gossip. Finally, it feels like the right time to start embracing my freak flag by leading and embarking on changing fashion trends that will be more intimate/ curated to the shopper experience. Though, to some it may seem crazy, I will continue working on altering our perception of the computers capabilities in fashion entertainment - innovation that I am passionate about. This will also alter the shoppers expected engagements amongst all fashion driven consumers. Before I go further, I have to pay tribute to my light bulb moment and must pay respects to the man that made this dream possible. It has only become reality because I was also at the start of something larger than me, and at the core of something new.
( Steve Jobs died today after a battle with cancer.) I wrote this blog yesterday however decided not to post it until after I processed his lasting impression on me. I hadn't realized how much so, until then it dawned on me: I was allowed to create pretty pictures on my Mac while not intimidated because it was built for my mind / it was artist friendly. My mother (who also died of liver / pancreatic cancer three years ago) always reminded me to
live my dream, while nurturing my ideas and as Steve too preached to believe in change. Although I am not as young as I once was, I too must believe in my stewarding innovation while young people
continue it as well. Its never too late until its too late. It all began when I jumped on a computer in 1990.
I have vivid memories of my freshman years while at University of
California Berkeley. Finding myself thrown into not only learning core
curriculum, but in finessing our Apple computers. We used floppy discs for our computers
back then, yet it was such a ground breaking revolutionary way of efficiency that it was integral tool to the execution of school papers and doing research. Students,
myself included, were required to use them. Hence, our neighboring computer genius - Steve Jobs at the helm of Apple in Silicon Valley, provided not just the
engineering school but all of my university, a variety of Macintosh Apple
computers. Doing away with the old - No more typewriters. Shortly
thereafter, Apple introduced a heavy 3" inch laptop computer, and I an artist, designer and trend influence-r eventually became the owner of my
first Apple laptop.
We have to thank Steve and express our sorry for his entire family. He revolutionized our school system and the world. I also hope that you continue to
find out what is happening with our next stages of Digishon.com. This is my
passion. I want to continue the business of changing technology that helps luxury
fashion e-tailoring, and local curated communities of shoppers. Please watch what comes in the future of our online
fashion revolution. We Press On
Rest In Peace - Steve Job.
