Hi! We’re Kat and Vali, founders of THE AMYGDALAB, an indie brand whose mission is to create unique fun intellectual products for book-lovers, history buffs, and science nerds. Vali is an indie author, cartoonist, and the creative force behind the brand.
We like to be creative in everything we do; so instead of providing you with the rudimentary style of blog you may be accustomed to seeing, we will be writing this web log as we see The Amygdalab in our imaginations: as an actual lab. In this series you will be able to read about the adventures and exploits of our researchers, historians, archaeologists, librarians, and scientists as they explore vast vistas of knowledge and the imagination. You will be able to read of their discoveries, their successes, and their failures. You’ll be privy to their research notes and their papers. You may even hear updates from our mascot, Copernicus the Lab Mouse.

Our first product is a set of four Fictional Bar Coasters, featuring Alice in Wonderland, Moby Dick, The Odyssey, and Rikki Tikki Tavi. It is very suitable as a gift for bookworms, and they’re also super absorbent.
