Common Discourse is a project designed to help others (and ourselves) think through creativity, focus, and intentional work—from Alex Tan & Alice Otieno.

Every Tuesday we share words from a journal, a few ideas, a quote from somebody else, and links worth sharing. On Fridays we invite a guest to share images from their camera roll and a sound that resonates with them.


2.5 years ago Mackenzie, Abe and I were sitting in Woodcat every day from the time it opened to when it closed trying to figure out how to get people to hire us for a newly formed company we called MOUTHWASH Studio.

This weekend, all 10 of our full time team members took a trip out to Big Bear for our first team retreat in a 9,500 sq ft cabin. It was way too big for us and made me feel like a kid again.

Every day I get to wake up and work on projects that feel meaningful with the most talented and hardworking group of individuals. Here is our team today. Send them all my love.

  • Mackenzie Freemire

  • Abraham Campillo

  • Alex Tan

  • Ben Mingo

  • Jason Annas

  • Shayna Fowler

  • Janna Cabello

  • Misha Tahir

  • Alice Otieno

  • John Burgess

We asked everyone to send things from their camera roll that they captured throughout the weekend.

When I look at these images, the only thing I can think about is that we’ve come a long way.
