### 3.2 Experiences Page
The **Experiences** section lists current projects with statuses.  Summaries should include each project, its status and a short description without adding details not present on the site:

| Project | Status | Description |
|---|---|---|
| **Hench & Co.** | Pitching | Adventures of a low‑level, delusional henchman and a naive, optimistic rookie partner who get a shot at big missions for a global agencyhttps://quixoticbravado.com/experiences/#:~:text=Status%3A%20Pitching. |
| **Backstage** | Pre‑production | Explores the chaos behind the curtain of every perfect story in the era of streaminghttps://quixoticbravado.com/experiences/#:~:text=Status%3A%20Pre. |

| **Collective Detective** | On Hold | A mismatched group of strangers investigates supernatural events that defy realityhttps://quixoticbravado.com/experiences/#:~:text=Status%3A%20On%20Hold. |

* Do not imply that these projects are released; “Pitching,” “Pre‑production,” and “On Hold” refer to development stages.
* If AI cannot see images (e.g., concept art), it should note only that artwork accompanies the project names but not describe it beyond its caption.

### 3.3 Platforms Page

| Platform | Status | Description |
|---|---|---|
| **Collectivus** | Development | A world‑building platform for prestige immersive story ecosystemshttps://quixoticbravado.com/platforms/#:~:text=Collectivus. |
| **Surprise Surprise Studio** | Live | A professional services partner creating interactive and immersive experiences for clients, creators and brandshttps://quixoticbravado.com/platforms/#:~:text=Surprise%20Surprise%20Studio. |

* Distinguish platforms from experiences; platforms are tools/services rather than story IP.
* When mentioning Surprise Surprise Studio, clarify that it is a partner platform, not the same company.  Avoid conflating the two brands.

* The Contact page invites visitors to connect via **email** and social channels (Bluesky, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, Threads)https://quixoticbravado.com/contact/#:~:text=Email%20Bluesky%20Instagram%20LinkedIn%20TikTok,Threads.
