Hi, I am Stuart ‘Smudge’ Smith and I am a kidney transplant patient, at a different stage of my life. Just your typical working-class bloke, who sees the fun side of life, after going through so much. I still have a lot of fun with my voices and impressions, but it’s really just a fun hobby now, which helps me to stay creative and help with my mental health. I also use my lived experience to help other patients, as well as with mental health.
My Stuart AI voice is now active in the Eleven Lab library. Its can be used to read pages, use as a customer service agent and more.
Stuart Smudge Design is an idea I had about 10 years ago. I saw that QR codes could add a new dimension to a greeting card. The logo is actually based on the scan box when we scan a QR code. Back then no one really knew about QR codes and many were worried about links. Then during covid, QR codes were used widely and 3 years ago, I decided to take another look at the idea. Having already voiced Birthday cards in the past, it made sense to use a QR code. Some of my cards have my impressions inside. Its a way to still use my voices and earn a passage income, to help pay for subscriptions and the like. Find out more about my cards.
