every company runs on a worldview, whether it's written down or not.
but most aren't, so they don't show up coherently.
i'm working on a brand system for the studio and started with a philosophy.md

ansel adams put his photography into two buckets: assignments from without and assignments from within.
client work and creative work. client work paid for creative work. producing creative work led to more client work.
