All music licensed through http://hg.ms/JKapLu This documentary is a humble exploration of the world of print, as it scratches the surface of its future. I consider this a work in progress. It is built upon interviews with individuals who are active in the Toronto print community and questions whether or not they expect to see the disappearance of the physical book within our lifetime. The act of reading a “tangible tome” has evolved, devolved, and changed many times over, especially in recent years. I hope for the film to stir thought and elicit discussion about the immersive reading experience and the lost craft of the book arts, from the people who are still passionate about reading on paper as well as those who are not. Please feel free to leave a comment below or email me directly at info@epiloguedoc.com. I would love to hear from you!

Creative Morning Berlin #10: Stephen Coles by Berlin/CreativeMornings
//Stephen talks about his Chromeography project, an online archive of chrome lettering affixed to vintage automobiles and electric appliances. These unsung metal emblems and badges are usually overlooked, forgotten, damaged, lost to time or the dump. Chromeography.com answers (and poses) questions about how and why these little pieces of art have changed over the years. It also showcases the kind of thematic curation that has only become possible in a social/digital world.

Craig Mod - Nourishing Habits for Nourishing Design by Build

The best designer is an aware designer. The best design solutions are found by deconstructing problems as they arise in our own lives. What habits can we as designers form to provide us with a more objective clarity in answering these problems? How can we apply these solutions to existing products? When is it time to build new products? There is an intersection between the cultivation of habit, personal experience and design application – it is nourishing and magic and something we should all strive to evoke.
