Amazon purple polymail6/29/2023 ![]() Instagram and Tweetbot because they are my favorite social media platforms right now. Camera and photos because currently it’s the only camera I own. What apps do you use the most, and why?įantastical because it’s awesome and makes it look easy to plan your weeks. I then use Blur to blur the wallpaper out and use it on my homescreen. It offers really beautiful images from above. I’m currently using an iPhone 6 64Gb in space gray. When that beautiful machine gets as powerful as my MacBook Pro, then that will be my ideal setup. I love my 15” MacBook Pro with Retina display, but I’m always very jealous when I see someone with the new 12” MacBook when I’m traveling. How would your ideal setup look and function? Of course, Tweetbot, 1Password, Pages, Keynote, and Flux are also installed and indispensable. I also use Final Cut Pro for family projects and After Effects to spice them up, but I’m not that experienced with the latter. Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator are still installed but Sketch gets the most attention. I use iA Writer to write and make first notes for a new project. When someone wants to use WordPress, I use MAMP to make a local database to test all the themes. I tried OmniFocus and Things, but they are just too complicated for me.įor web development, I use Sketch, Atom and Codekit. Clear is used for small to do lists so I don’t forget important tasks during the day. I can use Slack and WhatsApp side by side on my mac and my iPhone can stay in my pocket while I’m working behind my desk. A few days ago I stumbled upon Franz - a new app for Mac with a few messaging platforms built-in. We use Slack at work, and I use WhatsApp to stay in contact with friends and family. I like the separation between private and work mail that has emerged from this setup. My work email is Exchange-based, so I use the native mail client, which is still one of the best. I’m not in love yet, but it’s better than everything I’ve used before. I’m currently testing Polymail for all my personal mail accounts. I hate to use two web browsers side by side, so I use Chrome for everything now. What software do you use and for what do you use it?įor web browsing, I’m using Chrome because of all the CMS systems we use at Witte de With. The external display is hooked up to my PS4 to play some Uncharted 4 in April. Amazon made a mistake and put them online for $100 instead of $400 (the recommended price 4 years ago), so it was an easy decision. ![]() I wear them inside only because they are really big, the cable is almost 5 meters long, and I bought the ugly purple and gold ones. At home, I use a pair of Audio Technica ATH-AD700 Open-air Dynamic Audiophile headphones for the best sound experience. I also use the Apple EarPods when I’m travelling (I just make sure they are in my bag every time). Plus, for extra safety, everything is backed up to Backblaze and STACK (1 TB free back-up from a Dutch company). I also have a Seagate 1TB USB 3.0 Expansion Portable drive with two partitions - one for SuperDuper! and one for Time Machine. It served me well, but after 6 years the Bluetooth stopped working and the sleep mode was finicky at best, so the battery was always empty unless you shut the it down completely in between uses. Before, I had a mid-2009 13″ MacBook Pro with 8GB of ram and dual hard drives (I swapped the media drive for an SSD). I have a mid-2012 15” MacBook Pro with Retina Display, 256GB flash storage, and 16GB of RAM. During the week between 9 and 5, I’m working as a PR and Communication employee at Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art. I’m currently writing a master thesis about net.art to finish my masters in Contemporary Art. I talk about design and photography and showcase my own freelance work for several student associations and a few companies based in Utrecht on Visuology. I also write on my blog called Visuology, which will be back online soon (some problems with github pages sadly). I’m Jeroen Laven, and I’m a student living in Utrecht. New setup interviews are posted every Monday follow us on RSS or Twitter to stay up to date. We do these interviews because not only are they fun, but a glimpse into what tools someone uses and how they use those tools can spark our imagination and give us an idea or insight into how we can do things better. Every week we post a new interview with someone about what software they use on their Mac, iPhone, or iPad.
