Book Synopsis
Recorded Time: How to Write the Future is a memoir on the origins of Biograph, a company that tells and preserves stories. Businesses, like lives, are quantum phenomena: recording them transforms them. This book is not in the genre of “how I built this” but rather “how we’re building this.” Yet, in writing the company’s story, the company’s story has become worth writing.
Starting a business takes a leap of faith. It’s like falling in love or writing a book. You throw your doubts to the dogs and commit to something radical, scary, and fragile. You open yourself to failure. You take risks because you must. The inspiration and holy ambition are too powerful to ignore.
The brothers who co-founded Biograph, an engineer and a Shakespearean, believe that our humanity depends on narrative. Without stories, life slips away. We become isolated blips in the vast darkness of history. There’s never been more information about us available. Our DNA is collected in online databases. Our every move ends on social media between glossy ads for couches and designer sunglasses. But this sea of data is shallow, more puff and pretense than substance or reflection. Biograph helps people tell their own stories in the richness and depth they deserve.
