BRUSSELS — BOOK LAUNCH — 29.4

→ How to make books more sustainable? During this evening, Low-tech Magazine will present our "Compressed Book Edition", this time in Brussels, at Architecture Curating Practice's gallery.

→ Inspired by the image compression on its solar-powered website, Low-tech Magazine squeezed the article catalog of their three-volume chronological book series into just one book. Compressing the content — an editorial and design choice — produces a larger reduction in resource use than printing on recycled paper could ever do.

🕰 18:30 Doors open
19:00 Book presentation and introduction of Low-tech Magazine
19:45 Q&A
20:00 Book sale / snacks & drinks / discussion

📌 Architecture curating practice,
et al. architect-run space
37 Rue des Tanneurs / Huidevettersstraat 137
1000 Brussels

(talk will be held in english)
Poster by our current intern Hugo Lopez

Waarom ik geen nieuwe laptops meer koop

Als freelance journalist heb ik altijd geloofd dat ik regelmatig een nieuwe laptop moet kopen. Maar oudere machines bieden meer kwaliteit voor veel minder geld.

How and Why I Stopped Buying New Laptops

As a freelance journalist – or an office worker if you wish – I have always believed that I should regularly buy a new laptop. But older machines offer more quality for much less money.
