Hey Contra + Figma folks!

I'm Izzy from Lagos, Nigeria (@IsraelAdegbulu1). Just submitted Encarta Echo for the #FigmaMakeathon.

Goal: Bring back the joyful, exploratory feel of old Microsoft Encarta and make learning interactive, personal, and culture-shaping again by blending global knowledge with Afro-Nigerian heritage.

You start in a cosmic knowledge orb, search or tap a topic, and get immersive articles with AI-generated visuals, parallax timelines, hotspots, cultural remixes (Yoruba patterns, Afro-futurist twists), and a quick quiz.

Built fast with Figma Make: AI prompts for dynamic content, variables and conditionals for logic, scroll/hover interactions for smoothness. Link: https://encartayorubahistory.figma.site/

Came to @figma Config for the new features. Left with something else entirely.

Small talk that turned into deep conversations. Designers lifting each other up. Laughs. Real connections. The kind you don't plan for.

I used to think the metal music community was the strongest community out there. Turns out I found a second home when I left the live music world. One where being different is a feature, not a bug, and where we feed each other.

I spent years thinking people like me, with no design background, self-taught, came from nowhere, didn't belong here.

The more people I meet, the more I realize there's no single path. Just a shared destination.

Thank you Figma team for inviting me. To everyone I met this week, you made my week. Until the next one 🫶
