High Voltage Living with Visakan Veerasamy

Show Notes

Visakan Virasamy is an eccentric Singaporean who weaves together of sparkling web of insight, wit, and positivity throughout the world of twitter. The community of people he's built around him is eclectic, and the common sentiment i see among them is an overwhelming appreciation for the content he puts out.

Some would call him a marketing consultant — but that's underselling him substantially. Marketing could be seen as the best way to categorise and monetise what I think his gift is: understanding what makes people tick. These come in forms of long twitter threads, covering things like friendships and partnerships, procrastination, marketing, aesthetics, community, — there's too many to list. All of these seem to be interconnected in a massive visa-web of insight. I think about it as the twitterfication of his brain. He's also well on his way to writing 1 million words, which can be found on his blog,

He's one of my favourite people to follow because I have no idea what I'm going to read next, but I know it will make me see the world in a new way.

We have a pretty sporadic chat, covering topics including:

  • Identity
  • Diversifying your meaning portfolio
  • The Three S's -- Sensitivity, Smarts, Strength
  • Aesthetics
  • ADHD
  • Being a high-voltage person.
