【Lesson #2 - Don't fall in love with your product】
Anyone who’s read Eric Ries’ “The Lean Startup” (and even those that didn’t) is all too familiar with the concept of a minimum viable product (MVP)—except when they’re not. Oftentimes through a perfectionist attitude or perhaps inherent fear of failure, founders create products that are more viable than minimum. That was the experience for Kevin Wong, the Co-founder/CEO of Origami Labs (AW#15), when they were creating their first product, a smart ring called ORII. According to Kevin, it was because he had such an attachment to this vision in his head, and anything short of that vision just felt like a concession. He’s since learned to accept a more iterative approach to product development and applying that lesson to his current product OFLO which enables smartphone-level comms in an audio wearable designed specifically for frontline staff.
—-
After establishing Origami Labs in 2015, we spent several years in R&D to create our first product ORII, a voice assistant smart ring that uses bone conduction technology to allow users to check new messages on their phone, control music, and complete other everyday tasks by simply holding your finger to your ear. This simple, intuitive finger-to-ear motion was what we loved so much about the product and what made it so easy to catch on and talk about. Our kickstarter campaign blew way past the initial goal in a matter of weeks. We became the first HK startup to place in TechCrunch Battlefield’s top 5. Press coverage was coming at us left and right and orders were coming from over 50 different countries. A lot of that, however, turned out to be false momentum.
In retrospect, ORII probably should have never been able to sell as well as it did. A lot of founders through sheer passion, grit, and willpower alone can build up early traction without breaking a sweat. But can someone 2 to 3 degrees away from them sell their product? That’s where founders really get measured in success. At some point, the product should be able to stand on its own two feet and speak for itself.
ORII could not. That elegant finger-to-ear motion that we were so enamored with ultimately became its achilles heel. It turns out, in 95 percent of the scenarios, you wouldn’t want to lift your hand to your head, especially in this wireless/hands-free age. We effectively fell in love with our product and stopped really listening to our customers. We thought it was perfect and became blind to any signals that said otherwise. I still remember going to visit Eric Migicovsky, YC partner and founder of Pebble watch, at his house. I showed him some of our early prototypes and he basically said “that’s cool, but it won’t work,” drawing upon his own experiences with hardware. Sure enough, after the initial media frenzy died down, orders started to visibly slow down. The final nail in the coffin was when Amazon released the echo loop (smart ring tied to Alexa), which mimicked our product feature-for-feature but better in every way.
As a founder, what you want to build makes so much sense. You see it with so much clarity that it’s almost unfathomable why someone wouldn’t understand. But innovation has to be an iterative process, as the market can only accept so much change. You need to put out a product that’s in some way necessary for people today, that gets some people using it on a frequent basis, and only from there can you practically grow it into something that you envisioned.
Applications for AW#22 are now open to founders targeting SEA, AI/IoT, or Blockchain/Defi -> https://bit.ly/36v9k8D

slow loop- 7 在 icyball 冰球樂團 Youtube 的最讚貼文
~台北東京、我和你,距離?沒有問題~
——狗屁爛事與各種悲劇大量発生的2020——
———最快樂.最和平.最溫暖的———
———肯定、就是那個地方了吧 !———
11/11- 光棍節,
五個大男孩駛著一車的陽盛陰衰前進MV拍攝現場——在放學後的便利商店門口、在想夾個娃娃給喜歡女孩的娃娃機店、在模型漫畫電動A刊滿地的宅宅天堂,在各個充滿青春少年氣味的場景,扮演自己…
12/7- 大雪,
史上最糟的一年,難得出現好消息。在全世界都迫不及待想送走2020的聲聲倒數中,蟄伏在房間裡的男孩們終於再度出現在世人眼前,預告了即將到來的正式回歸。
12/21- 冬至
一年中黑夜最長的日子,讓我們摩擦一根火柴,聆聽冰球樂團的《在2103 公里之間》,滿懷感恩的心,在寒冷冬夜尋找香香甜甜的粉色美景,尋找2020最快樂最溫暖最和平的一隅。
P.S.如果有點冷了,那就再摩擦一根吧。

繼大獲好評的《響起》MV成為唯一在金錢豹取景的MV後,icyball 復出第一球再度給出樂迷驚喜!《在2103公里之間》MV大膽使用了一般用在工業測量或3D掃描的「點雲(Point Cloud) 」技術,將充滿少男快樂綺想的場景—電動玩具店、宅味十足的房間、娃娃機店、放學後的街角...都變成了夢境般朦朧卻鮮豔多汁的藝術品。
本MV由曾參與返校電影版動畫製作的Bird Chen 老師擔任導演,親自出馬製作點雲,掃描、後期,並由金曲常客吳建龍設計出戲謔並帶有復古元素的單曲封面,所有夥伴都是熱愛復古風格的藝術家,單曲封面使用的照片也特別選用傳統底片拍攝。
《在2103公里之間》歌曲上架後,討論區及樂迷社群紛紛開始猜測起副歌的神秘英文字串究竟是什麼意思,而這有點害羞又有點可愛的秘密就藏在卡其制服男孩的房間裡,未滿18歲千萬不要偷偷上網查詢。

《在 2103 公里之間》
放慢動作 讓時間停格在這一秒鐘
那份悸動 整個宇宙的美好只屬於你和我
Take it slow 我應該還有
還有些話想對你說
能不能 讓這邂逅沒有盡頭
Think of you every night every day
保存期限不只是永遠
Maybe you'll never know my name
在 2103 公里之間 都很有感覺
Think of you every night every day
同個時間同一個地點
Maybe you'll never know my name
在 2103 公里之間 都很有感覺

Practise/Theory Note, JTC Says:
Continuing with Theme B, we still have a mixture of tonalities. For the F#m we can stick with A major (A B C# D E F# G#), once again returning to F Lydian for the Fmaj7. Jack sticks to this scale for the G chord, and then plays a bluesy A minor pentatonic (A C D E G) lick over the D.
