Hello, World!

I'm Alex Van de Sande and I'm an interaction designer. I love learning complex stuff translating it into simple terms.

An early member of the Ethereum Foundation, I helped shape the early experience of web3. I'm also an illustrator, and a proud dad.

Things you can't take from me

Small little dents on the universe for which I'm proud for.

Things you can take from me

I sometimes make stuff that you can have in your home. Maybe you or the geek in your life might like them.

The Triangle of Everything (Poster)

Everything that ever existed can be plotted on this chart. In this single plot that tracks space, size, time, density, temperature and energy, you'll learn about the story of the universe, the evolution of stars, the decay of particles, the search for dark matter, what makes a planet and why hippos can't float.

You can find me in a myriad of places online.

Books featuring the Ethereum Story

  • The Infinite Machine

    A very light and fun book by Camila Russo, from the early days to the ICO manias of 2018. Maybe soon as a movie by Scott Free productions.

  • Out of the Ether

    Matthew Leising tells the story of the DAO heist as a non-linear and exciting thriller worthy of a spy movie.

  • The Cryptopians

    Laura's book is the latest most comprehensive of all three but also the largest. She's also the one who figured out who the DAO Hacker was!
