I agree--I am very impressed by your splash page (both design and copy) but I feel like it wasn't consistent with what you get once you sign up. For me, I was expecting something similar to Brian Eno's "Oblique Strategies" from the description (i.e. more vague, abstract suggestions), but it turned out to be more like Random Wikipedia.

Thanks for your comment. Did you search for something specific? Your comment on randomness totally applies to the home page, but not to the connections, we think.

Fun fact: Brian Eno played with an early prototype of Seenapse and gave us some feedback too :)

I didn't--I just went with the default recommendations based on my designated interests.

I just tried searching for "dating websites" and it returned: Modern reliquaries & New Commodore 64, Sexy beast & Ben Kingsley, Pretty Mouth And Green My Eyes & Raymond Carver

While I do like Raymond Carver, I'm not sure if I find these connections intuitive...do you suggest search terms that are more abstract?

Also out of curiosity, what did Brian Eno say? :)

No, concrete searches should work, and will work better once more people contribute their mental associations. Since this is fairly new, there aren't many yet. But it should become more useful over time.

Eno said "So, does this exist? Is this live? Yeah, I'd like to use it."

He also shared an interesting idea/need which I mention here: https://medium.com/@rafael_j/the-cultural-ouroboros-e7917388...

Thanks again,

Thank you for taking the time to look at it. It's still in its early days, so there are many things we're still tweaking/building. Your feedback is greatly appreciated.
