Sydney / 2011

Our journey began five years ago
on a couch in Sydney.
We were obsessed with science and technology
and marvelled, thinking of what awaited us in the
future.
We'd often discuss ideas and brainstorm
innovative solutions to real everyday problems.

One evening, while playing with an iPad and a stylus we asked ourselves - what if we could hand draw on this tablet and it could appear on another person’s tablet in real-time? On the other side of the world? What if they could do the same back?

The idea sounded amazing, and we thought 'the world needs this'. We played out the idea and the possibilities seemed endless. Little did we know this was going to be a big part of our lives in the near future.

Over the following months, we'd be at work, at a networking event, in a meeting or just whiteboarding and would often find ourselves coming back to this one idea. We wished it existed so that we could easily explain stuff, plan things out or just simply work with someone remote.

Collusion started off as a prototype
and went through many iterations
since. Now it is a powerful
communication platform.

A plan for a successful Kickstarter campaign

Kickstarter
/ 2012

We pulled together a small team, developed
prototypes and launched on Kickstarter.

Collusion became the most successful
Kickstarter project to come from Australia
at the time.

With new understandings came
new beginnings and we
pivoted a few times.

Many joined and left us throughout
this journey.

dogfooding.
