Publications: A Designers' Update

Developments in the production of all kinds of publications increase in speed and impact. Yet most traditional publication designers and their customers are not fully aware of these dramatic changes. Even designers for new media, such as blogs, websites, apps on e-books tend to see their work as local and separate. The workshop will address these issues from the perspective of the future of design (what will students be doing 40 years from now?) and the increasing wide range of platforms and devices ("tablet computers require new thinking"). Design the design process. Some projects and cases are presented as ways to go.
