Peter Hamza from famed Inertia just let me know that one of the first independtly published book Visual Culture (Catalog) 2001 (out of print) which he edited, is now available for free on the web.
“To mark the 10 year anniversary of our community, we decided to share this hard to find book with everyone. Capturing the trends of the last decade, it contains nearly 200 pages of beautiful graphics from true pioneers such as François Chalet, Jens Karlsson, Büro Destruct, Todd Purgason, and many more.”
Ready for a trip down (design) memory lane?

LOVE your neighbors! This is exactly what two Dutch painters have undertaken and done. What do you think of Favela Painting in the heart of Rio de Janeiro? Really – really – really beautiful visually. Wow what color and design (passion and heart) can do to the most dire of places.
Something I wish could be emulated the world around.
