2. today i would like to introduce you to some interesting projects.
i chose them not because of the project itself,
but because of the presentation language.
how to explain your idea in a concise and immediate and fascinating way.

3. the cover image, the previous page and this page,
they are works made by rube goldberg.
well-know cartoonist, famous for his “goldberg machines”
here an interesting goldberg machine: “the page turner”, by Joseph Herscher

4. here you have another interesting project: “noteboek” by evelien lohbeck

5. here a project where the designers (crispin jones
and ideo) focus their attention on the relationship
between the mobile phone and people’s behaviors

you might consider to get into his world.
it is an extremely fascinating world.

8. then of course,
we cannot skip terry gilliam’s animation.
monty phyton stuff, if you don’t know,
you should check them out.

you could sketch your story

“the life and time of ettore sottsass”

10. here you have marti guixe’s drawings
