Led by Audrey and Adam, "Snap Into It" is a podcast by Configura that connects designers with developers, manufacturers with researchers, and your hosts with a whole bunch of cool people they want to interview!
We will interview users about their experiences that directly contribute to projects we are working on, and we will interview people who create tools for users so we can all get to know each other a little better.
In Episode 011 of Snap Into It, titled "The Survey," We reflect on the journey of our podcast as we transition between seasons.
We discuss our favorite moments, and looking ahead, we reveal plans for Season 2, including potential new segments like "Extension Mention" and listener-requested updates.
Most importantly, we invite you, our valued listeners, to participate in a survey to help shape the future of the podcast. Your feedback is crucial, and there's a chance to win a $50 gift card. Tune in to hear about our experiences, lessons learned, and exciting plans for the future.

In this episode of Snap Into It, we (okay, mostly Audrey) take you back to NeoCon, where we recorded conversations with innovators who saw a need and created solutions—showing the true power of design thinking.
We kick things off with Kaylie Tucker of Kovergent Solutions, who developed Konsol, an extension designed to save users days of time when making cut sheets. We also caught up with the development team at Platinum Edge Solutions, including Bryan Thompson and Sierra Santoyo, to hear about their process.
Next, Bryan Mayer of Mayer Fabrics joins Audrey to share insights on the Material Portal and introduce Mayer’s new vinyl fabric—a sustainable response to the challenges of traditional vinyl.
Finally, Adam and Audrey team up to chat with Jason Lund, who created Aura, a tool that delivers the benefits of render acceleration without requiring expensive hardware. And yes—we recorded this one right in the fantastic SnapCab booth at NeoCon.
