Hi, I’m Sindhu, a writer and creative operator.
I’m interested in tech, culture, systems thinking, anthropology and metacognition. I often bring my Humanities background to bear on questions of technology.
I invariably hold a nuanced, bifocal lens to anything I’m currently building, including my independent research practice and my Design Operator role at PhonePe. I also write a newsletter, Kindred Spirits, on agentic ways of living and making meaning.
This garden is where I document ideas and concepts I’ve been mulling over, as well as books I’ve been reading and how I spend my days.
garden: Essays, book reviews, and conceptual notes
now: A sporadically updated log of what I’m up to
lore: More about my history and interests
Most recently, I’ve written about narratives as operating systems, digital gardening in the age of AI, software use as micro-performances of identity, amoeba roles in tech, and why so few technologists work on public good problems.
Here’s a cup of tea ☕️ to accompany you as you wander around. To get in touch about potential projects or other collaborations, email me at sindhushivaprasad@proton.me.
