The Pastry Box Project
Sara Wachter-Boettcher:
You see, the truth about the web is that there’s no inherent *there* there. The only substance it has is the substance we give it—which means that if we’re not *substantial people*—people who’ve read far and wide, thought long and hard, and discovered what it is that matters—then the web work we’re capable of will always be shallow.
Great quote.

James Bridle in a great post about the color green:
I sat in front of the grids of light with my eyes closed and his flourescent lights gave out a special heat, that of colour.
“The defining characteristic of designers is that they are eternally optimistic but continually dissatisfied.”
“I hope I am never satisfied creatively because at that point, the switches will have turned off either in my mind or worse, in my heart. I want to always be creating, always be composing, always be synthesizing ideas, and always be making sense of the world around me.”

Paul Choi in The Analog Aesthetic or the Vinyl Manifesto:
I began to think about the idea of evolving design surrounding a technology largely deemed “obsolete.” Yes, digital is more convenient and ubiquitous, accessible and democratic. But most will tell you — beyond the little hiss that happens from the flecks of dust playing — that vinyl sounds more real, warmer, fuller. Analog attempts to capture the sound as it is and does not convert it in some way — no matter how great the means of conversion.
It’s a good post on what makes vinyl (which I also love) great, and it includes some interesting implications for graphic design.
