James Hall - Designer Manager at Edge & Node
Show Notes

Today I am speaking with James Hall, Design Manager at Edge & Node. If you’ve ever visited The Graph website, then you’ve seen many of the contributions James and his team have made – from the smallest design elements, like the buttons on the site, all the way up to the design of the user experience and interface.

During this enlightening interview, James talks about his journey into Web3, Edge & Node, and The Graph. And if you’re a long-time listener of the podcast, then you will recognize many familiar storylines in James' story that are shared by prior guests, including a period of time when James met and worked alongside the founders and other early community members of The Graph at MuleSoft.

As you will hear, James has a well-thought-out and deep conviction for the utility of The Graph, the Web3 ethos, along with the design of The Graph protocol and its incentives structure. We also talk about his move from aspiring architect to UX designer working in tech, his initial reluctance of crypto, and then his move to Edge & Node. And toward the end of the interview, James will introduce you to an analogy he uses to explain how The Graph works - and it's a new one that I'm sure you'll find helpful!
