Roger: Hold Onto Your Souls!

http://rogermag.blogspot.com/2007/03/hold-onto-your-souls.html

Sunday, March 18, 2007. Hold Onto Your Souls! But the book doesn't stop with just business, it's like a mullet: business in front, and pleasure in the back! In the last pages of the book there is a chapter covering the creative process. In short, how to pull the best designs possible out of yourself even if your brain is kicking and screaming for ideas. My favorite piece of advice: "It is only by daring to experiment, and by taking risks, that rich and meaningful design is created.". Hold Onto Your Souls!

Roger: Perfect Words

http://rogermag.blogspot.com/2007/03/perfect-words.html

Wednesday, March 28, 2007. Imagine walking into a meeting, and as the opening word the leader states that the goal is to design something "fair, equitable, and sustainable for all generations of all species of all time." Not a small task! What a strong statement! So strong that I have everything to say about it and nothing all at once, for fear of ruining the power of it. So I'll just leave it here for the day.

Roger: January 2007

http://rogermag.blogspot.com/2007_01_01_archive.html

Friday, January 26, 2007. Die „design talents“ auf der IMM 2007. Wie auch schon im letzten Jahr, bot die IMM jungen Designern und Hochschulen im Rahmen der „design talents“ ein Forum, ihre Konzepte, Prototypen und Produkte einem internationalen Fachpublikum vorzustellen. In anbetracht der Tatsache, mit welch großen Worten die IMM ihre „ Arena für kreative Köpfe“ im Vorfeld bewarb, war man geneigt davon auszugehen hier ein Highlight der Messe vorfinden zu können. Erfolgreich gelang dies der Firma Designat...

Roger: Lulu Is My Friend

http://rogermag.blogspot.com/2007/03/lulu-is-my-friend.html

Sunday, March 18, 2007. Lulu Is My Friend. But there's a new self-publishing website online, (if not more,) Lulu! I'm getting all sorts of crazy design-studenty ideas. Zines, comics, poetry, documentations, and final portfolio pieces that I don't have to craft myself. You can even add an ISBN number, [girlish giggle.] This is going to be so much fun! Design students need these kinds of resources! Posted by Roger Magazine. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Visit the ROGER Homepage! Hold Onto Your Souls!

Roger: April 2007

http://rogermag.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html

Friday, April 27, 2007. I admit that I was never a comic manic, although I wanted to be. I was never too excited about superheros, but I like the halftone patterns made by ink roughly applied on a cheap paper stock, and word bubbles, gods gift to the visual medium. It was a love/hate relationship, magnetizing to the graphics, repelling the storylines. Posted by Roger Magazine. Saturday, April 7, 2007. Have you ever built a city?

Roger: A New Favorite Thing

http://rogermag.blogspot.com/2007/03/new-favorite-thing.html

Sunday, March 18, 2007. A New Favorite Thing. The time has come to give a shout out to my new favorite thing. Architects Hatch . I saw it at Passagen, and like that Kylie Minogue song, I just can't get it out of my head. The neon. the stripes. the workmanship. the joy! The neon orange (or black for more boring people) inlayed stripes are so precisely set, they wrap around the piece matching. I wish it had been my idea! If you are brave enough to put neon colors in your home then everyone should love you!

Roger: Humanity Behind Bars

http://rogermag.blogspot.com/2007/03/humanity-behind-bars.html

Sunday, March 18, 2007. Necessity is the mother of invention" Plato was absolutely right. I found myself stuck in a small town near Cologne on a Sunday morning with one cigarette in hand, and no lighter. What to do, what to do? It helped me to sympathise with a book I recently found called Prisoners' Inventions. How do you react do people do when only their most basic needs (food and heat) are provided for? What about the less than basic needs? Lighting up a cigarette, privacy, tattoos? In his words "The...
