Friends, colleagues... many of you know that we have been working on a monumental update/new edition to Meggs' History of Graphic Design. For 4 years we have been conceiving, devising, improvising and generally making headway. This is careful and complicated work that we've made extra difficult by completely reorganizing the book's structure from chronological to thematic. (1/3)
To help us better understand the project, test ideas, mark our progress, and foster accountability we've begun writing about our writing (link in bio). To write something down makes it both concrete and also helps better articulate a thought. That's what I am trying to do with this post. We've been working on this project for a couple years and felt every level of confidence with our approach. It's hard to maintain purpose and perspective on long-term / large-scale projects. (2/3)
Diana, I think I left my umbrella at your place. In 1978.

Scary photo. Valle Caldera doesn't look anything like that. It is beautiful. Still a super-volcano though.

At #FediForum, @n00q discussed a Federated music service for #BandCamp refugees. After a few days of drawing up requirements and specs, and a couple days of code, something interesting is taking shape.

Here's a too-fast-tour of a hypothetical album page built with #Emissary. Custom skins, uploads, and transcoding music is still TBD, but so far this feels like magic.

Bands' profiles will be native citizens of the Fediverse to like, share, and comment. Excited yet?
