The Phoenix ArchitectureGreat Hall South · Conference Day #1
Phoenix Architecture is a way of thinking about software in a world where implementations can be rewritten faster than they can be understood. As AI shifts the economics from maintenance to regeneration, the real architectural questions move upstream: what must remain stable, what can safely change, and what breaks humans when it breaks at all. This talk offers a set of lenses (not answers) for reasoning about durability, trust, and coherence in long-lived systems. Attendees should leave with new instincts, sharper questions, and a sense that some of our deepest assumptions about software may need to be revisited.

Groundings with my Siblings: Lessons Learned Building for Community
10:00 AM - 10:30 AM
I had the privilege of discussing Blacksky and AT Protocol at several different college campuses, conference venues and other settings along with webinars and doing user research. I plan to share those learnings to help others build better products and how we particularly plan to incorporate those learnings from both a product and operations standpoint.
Who owns the group chat? Building collaborative spaces on ATProto
10:30 AM - 11:00 AM
Traditional social platforms centralize control of community spaces—the platform owns your group, your members, and your data. On ATProto, ownership, governance, and moderation become explicit design decisions. This talk explores building shared resources on a decentralized protocol—from data synchronization to governance models—drawing from real experience building community features and examples from other ATProto apps.
