#15 | Physical cryptography with Cursive
With Vivek, Mathematician and Designer, and Rachel, Designer at Cursive
This week, we spoke with Vivek and Rachel from Cursive, a research and design studio focused on building cryptography for human connection. Key takeaways include:
The journey of Cursive, blending cryptography, design, and NFC technology to make abstract concepts like ZK Identity more tangible and user-friendly.
Experiments with physical ZK activations, such as using NFC cards to create verifiable social graphs, private POAPs, and interactive quests for events like Zuzalu and DevConnect.
Insights into their research on multi-party FHE and their innovative Trinity protocol, combining MPC and ZK for low-latency, verifiable computations.
A thoughtful approach to expanding beyond niche tech communities by exploring applications in real-world contexts like universities, co-living spaces, and broader tech environments.
A vision for the intersection of cryptography and AI, aiming to enhance data ownership, privacy, and meaningful connections through local-first AI models and innovative hardware integration.
