Why is it important?

This paper offers a unique and inspiring vision of the Venn diagram as an empathetic figure that can lead to ideation, connections, and meaning-making. It's not about thinking outside the box, it's about thinking inside circles!

Perspectives

It was a liberating and illuminating experience to write this paper. All figures in the paper were drawn by me, and can give you a first-hand understanding of what Venn means to me, how they've shaped my identity, and what they can mean to you.
