Design Work Life: Cataloging Inspiration Daily

This week­end I finally made it to the Cooper Hewitt’s exhi­bi­tion on Governor’s Island, Graphic Design — Now In Production. I was already famil­iar with many of the pieces, but it was great to see them in per­son at their orig­i­nal scale — I highly rec­om­mend it, if you’re in the area. If you fol­low me on Instagram, you can also see some images from the show.

We also finally made it to the Museum of the Moving Image, which was even bet­ter than expected. If you’re at all a fan of tele­vi­sion, film or pop cul­ture, I would def­i­nitely rec­om­mend a visit.

The inter­net map is “a bi-dimensional pre­sen­ta­tion of links between web­sites on the Internet.”

I’ve been more into the Olympics this year than I have in the recent past, so I’m really lov­ing Jay L. Clendenin’s recent pho­tog­ra­phy project. Over a period of four weeks he pho­tographed 2012 Olympians in two ways — with his mod­ern DSLR cam­era and in black and white with a 4-by-5-inch field cam­era and a 100-plus-year-old Petzval lens. Take a look at the jux­ta­po­si­tions right here.

Facebook Stories is a col­lec­tion of videos and writ­ten and illus­trated sto­ries that share extra­or­di­nary ways peo­ple have used Facebook.

I’m look­ing for­ward to the first ever Designers & Books fair here in New York this fall.

AIGA has com­pletely revamped its mem­ber­ship structure.
