The studio's shelf
The Biblioteca.
The Selfprompted Studio stands on learning that spans disciplines: behavior science, learning research, public health, and what surfaces inside real organizations. This shelf holds the research, listening, and reading that inform the work, updated as it grows.
What earns a place. Everything here is about human behavior after the technology arrives, not about the technology itself. Where a source was published by a company that sells the remedy, the sponsor is named.

Our own workField Notes
One short observation most weeks on why AI sticks or doesn't.
People tried AI. Did they come back?
Nothing on a usage dashboard answers that, and it is the only thing that tells you where a rollout actually is.
