2019 · First parliament
A budget collision between CRM and paid teams ended in a structured debate instead of a Slack flame war—the seed of Channel Role Parliament.
Story
A studio born from messy launches, not slide decks
Wavehub Currentx Collective began when three agencies kept shipping brilliant channel wins that contradicted in-store signage. We built rehearsal rituals borrowed from civic forums and theater tech weeks—then formalized them into programs marketers could reuse without us on payroll.
Principles we defend in critique
- Continuity beats isolated channel trophies.
- Evidence packets beat hallway persuasion.
- Hotwashes beat mystery postmortems.
- Privacy posture is rehearsed, not improvised.
Milestones
Three moments that shaped the studio
2022 · Namcheon wall
We leased studio space in Gyeongsan-si to host wall-sized journey rehearsals with honest lighting and bad coffee on purpose.
2025 · Certificate track
Alumni asked for proof of rigor—so we paired capstone memos with observer signatures instead of automated badges.
