Ideas For Progress

Stripe Press is an upstart independent publisher developed at Stripe. The north star for our editorial approach is Ideas For Progress—we publish work that highlights scientific, technological, and economic progress, in order to inspire and educate builders and entrepreneurs.

The imprint began by publishing books from authors, but my work has been developing the Press’s own editorial voice while expanding it into new medium such as podcasts and films. I produced our first feature length documentary We Are As Gods, about the luminary Stewart Brand. Beneath The Surface is a narrative podcast series about infrastructure. that I developed with our host (and the press’s commissioning editor) Tamara Winter. I also produced The Street Network (La Red Callejera), a short film about Cuba’s underground internet.
