There for the Crimbo and New Year months so lets explore undenting the universe plus moving slow and fixing things.
Even though it’s a family / friends focused trip am open to the usual creative collaborations in the following arenas:
- FIRESIDE.RS WORKSHOP
From my new venture fireside.rs, which focuses on unlocking creative productivity by gathering humans effectively.
This unique offering is a 90min workshop designed around the simple idea that how we gather matters, and as been delivered across this year with approx 250 participants—check out two recent Australia ones and testimonials:
“I always welcome a chance to collaborate DK, even when I’m not entirely sure what’s involved. When I saw his idea for fireside.rs, I knew we had to test it out with the Liveris Academy Scholars. The idea that the shapes of our meetings determine the shapes of our conversations seems straightforward, but it’s a deep insight. And DK has an incredible skillset for transforming that simple idea into a meaningful and fun experience for everyone involved.”
Professor Tim Kastelle, Director, Andrew N. Liveris Academy for Innovation and Leadership, The University of Queensland, Brisbane (host of 6th workshop—related LinkedIn post with timelapse / Brisbane, Australia: 20th Oct 2026)
“Many thanks for bringing this big hearted practice and the fireside work to Creative Agency research lab RMIT School of Education! You have reminded us of the power of in-person connection, human interaction, and communities built on connection to place.”
Professor Daniel X. Harris, Director of Creative Agency research lab, The Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology, Melbourne (host of 8th workshop—related LinkedIn post with timelapse / Melbourne, Australia: 22nd Oct 2026)
It can be run as an internal staff session / lunch & learn / evening community experience / part of an existing conference etc. (full details and delivery requirements listed here) and is currently provided as a ‘no-fee’ experience (just cover any expenses).
After this trip the ‘no-fee’ offer ends and will evolve into a paid service.
- PURPOSEFUL STORYTELLING TALKS / MASTERCLASSES / 1-2-1s
I help leaders to develop and deliver powerful presentations, whether it be 1-2-1 or as groups via my half or full day masterclasses (for up to 12 participants).
- CREATIVE CONSULTS
Simple per hour consulting, aiding the development of activations / events into delicious learning experiences (based on my experience of selling out nearly 20 TEDx’s experiences / creating totally unique things like Creative Welly etc.—see more here.
- CREATING ART
Been busy creating my artistic practice over the past couple of years and sharing for a piece of work every day since the beginning of the year.
Happy to get to together for a sketch / doodle hang.
- PERSONAL HANGS
Lets get together and be curious / kind humans.
Keen to hear what you’ve been up to and how I can add value—always up for brain tingles and side conversational quests.
Throw in a peppermint tea (or beverage of your choice), plus a hug or two, then we have a winning formula for good times!
If any of the above tickles your fancy bits let me know via my contact page.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
