media diet

Editorial · voices worth following

The editorial filter.

Our ongoing diet of voices, shows, publications, and platforms telling complete stories — across Style, Art, and Food. Read the public diet, curate the canonical entities behind it, or work the sources catalog. The place a Media Diet session starts.

Start here · the one you open
The Desk · open this
Media Desk
Every Media Diet title in one list. Add, edit, set your verdict and publish. New finds from Trawl and Figma Triage land here as candidates and wait for your yes.
The page · open this to go live
Media Diet page
See every part of the page, edit it, preview it and go live on canava.co. Opens the Page map in the Desk.
Design mock · 1 Oct
The new Media Diet, designed
How the finished system looks: the Desk, the public Reader, the self-updating list and the longer feature. Real titles, nothing saves.
Audit
Media Diet Audit
Check how each title can be watched or read, and set what publishes. The Gaps tab lists every live and candidate title still missing an image, your take, a subject or your verdict — each opens on the Desk.
What readers see · and the embeds
Embed · live · for canava.co/media-diet
Media Diet page embed
The page readers see, as it sits in the canava.co frame. Shows only what you’ve filled on the Desk.
Embed · preview
Media Diet page, gaps marked
The same page with pink marks on everything still to write or pick. Only you see this version.
Reader · public · placeholder design
Media Diet Reader
The public Media Diet. Reads only live titles on the Desk, one mix at a time — put a live title in a mix and it appears.
Layout · draft
Media World
A draft reader that already reads the Desk: subject doors, grouped by who, full profiles.
Embed
Embed Studio
Two Media Diet embeds for Squarespace: a mix that lists itself (new live titles appear on their own) and a feature profile for one title, as a page version or an Instagram card. Placeholder designs.
Retired · kept for reference, nothing writes to them
Retired 1 Oct 2026
Sources Catalog (old)
The old catalog. Every title in it is now on the Desk, and the page forwards there.
Superseded
Media Curator (old)
The first curator, replaced by the Media Desk. Still opens, but use the Desk.

One list, many views: you keep titles on the Desk; the Reader, Media World and every embed read from it. Earlier versions of each page are kept alongside (dated 1 Oct). Nothing was deleted when the old catalog retired.
