Craftime – Détails, épisodes et analyse

In our first episode, host & Robotime's content creator Patrick Wang sits down for a cozy conversation with Tina, a former office manager based in Indiana, and Liset, a wound care nurse from the Netherlands, as they share how a simple miniature crafting hobby, and how Robotime brands (Rolife and ROKR) have grown into something much more in their lives.

What do Baby Yoda, Jason Momoa, resin art, clay, painting, and 3D printing have in common?

In this episode, Michelle—an "eternal student" and passionate maker—takes us on a journey through creativity without boundaries. From miniature worlds and gelato stalls to the challenges and rewards of learning new skills, we explore how curiosity connects seemingly unrelated crafts, why mistakes are part of the process, and how following inspiration can lead to unexpected magic.

After all, even Grogu and the Mandalorian deserve an ice cream break.

In a world shaped by screens, notifications, and AI-generated text, why are people still returning to typewriters?

In this episode of Craftime, Patrick sits down with Rodja Pavlik — a former journalist from Austria who spent more than 25 years working in media before rediscovering typewriters later in life. Through their conversation, they explore distraction in the digital age, the emotional connection between humans and mechanical tools, and why analogue hobbies still resonate so deeply today.

Rodja, who runs the German typewriter blog Die Schreibmaschinisten (“The Typewriters”), shares his personal journey from typewriters to computers —and eventually back again.

Together, they discuss focus, slowness, craftsmanship, nostalgia, and the search for more tangible experiences in an increasingly virtual world.

The episode also touches on the newly released ROKR wooden typewriter kit, inspired by the classic Underwood No. 5, as well as ideas explored in The Typewriter Revolution by Richard Polt.

Because perhaps the future of typewriters isn’t really about technology at all — but about how we want to feel while creating.
