The Library
The Hiduke House Library is a place for original and powerful ideas to help you learn and make amazing things.
Each idea is distinctly captured in forms that range from straightforward white papers to abstract lyrics.
The library was created to be useful to everyone: from the most advanced innovators to scrappy upstarts to everyday curious people.
Original and powerful ideas deeply defined and broadly applied through straightforward white papers.

Why do you I use different forms to capture ideas?
​
Because different forms can capture ideas in unique ways.
White papers are good for big, practical ideas, pitches are good for action plans, takes get at what's missing, stories do so much to find universal truths in the specific, lyrics bottle aspects of emotion and culture that are sometimes undefinable in the scientific sense, and science does what science does best: emperical evidence.

​
Why do you I use word docs​ and slide decks so often? ​
Because word docs and slides present the pure idea without fluff.
My love of word docs comes being a scientist sharing research and a film student sharing scripts -- always in a simple word doc form.
My love for slides comes from being an academic and business educator -- where my students and clients always appreciate slide summaries.
