And we are multi-tasking into multi-projects both commercial and personal. The Underwood illustration by Mike Lemanski exemplifies – at least for me – the different aspects of my current activities.
Seeking talent to review – contributing to social networks – answering emails – compiling past writings for a book – working on my music albums – reading design books and finally..
Starting a fresh new week of research into my photographic folders to assemble a selection for a new self-inititiated project.

3 Tips For Designing A Work Space That Embodies Your Brand by John Edson
A workspace is as much an opportunity to express who you are as a company as it is a functional place to get work done.
More precious furniture and fixtures once we have more clarity about our needs and preferences — and even then, we won’t build anything that can’t be upgraded, improved, reconfigured, or summarily ripped out.
_______
Have you organized your ‘space’ so it is creatively stimulating?

_______
Past w/e got rid of a huge workstation table that was engulfing not only the physical space – but my ‘creative’ space. Having two separated workstations was not – as I initially envisioned – conducive to my double-tasking either editorial work or pure design.
The ‘nagging’ design workstation became a silent reproach of sort: ‘you’re not working here enough’.
Embarking in new projects – I joined both workstations. I can switch in a snap. A huge empty wall will be posted with in-progress comps. Newly emptied space in book and paper / past work shelving units – offers room to ‘grow’ again.
You can see the way it were here (page 16).
Impact? Never felt so charged.




‘Little Printer‘ is all over the Internet this am.
Just scrolled the FastCo article – more pix available than on original website which is – imo – very unfortunate since I always like to go to the ‘source’- why not capitalize on branding the device publicly instead of circulating an obscure (kinda) web page.
Never never p.r. your material and not post on your own website.
_______
Webpage has changed since first visiting early this am.
________
Not withstanding above – this is a cute (and promising) device.

Beauty Benefits by Dr Daniel Hamermesh
Beauty may seem like enough of a reward in and of itself , but a wealth of research reveals it comes with extra perks: prettier people earn more money, find higher-earning and hotter spouses – even get better mortgages deals – and it may be because they develop higher self-esteem early on in life.

________
How much more supercifial can it get? Seems that the hollywodean model of beautiful (and in this case – includes smarts) has reached new heights of deceptions. Living in society that nurturs such bias and that favor first (physical) impression over first smart impression – is depressing.
Granted when I started on the Internet – I was happy to hide my gender (and looks) behind a monitor to produce / publish work that appealed firstly to intellect.
Granted it was a powerful shelter as I pushed to explore, theorize and consume information – never giving a thought (till this day) to who is behind my quest to discover talent.
But this research – is a throw back.
