Classical concert in “Noites de Verão” at Ponta Delgada

30 years in technology — I’ve seen the rise of the internet, built products across the digital economy, and lived through every major leap in innovation. Yet, nothing humbles me quite like the analog magic of a turntable. A tiny needle tracing microscopic grooves on vinyl, transforming them into rich, layered stereo sound. No algorithms, no code — just pure mechanical ingenuity. For all our digital brilliance, I sometimes think… we’re still amateurs compared to this.
