History of T and T, condensed

Hi all,

Here are some photos of the book I made. It's a condensed version of the course, broken down into four main sections ala Walter Ong.

The cover opens up two vertical French doors that contain information on the two earliest eras of human communication and graphic design: oral culture and chirographic/ manuscript culture.

Then, in order to allow space for the major areas we addressed, the next two sections open in a dos-a-dos fashion to provide information on print culture compared to digital culture.

The book's wallpaper is made from the condensed print of words and ideas found on our blog, the strips are glued one on top of the other to represent an immersion into the conversation.

The book's cover is decorated with a title: History of T & T. Running down the left side is the list of dates of publications on our blog. Across the bottom is the url for our blog.

My plan was to make a neatly folded souvenir from our time spent together in the course -- sort of a party favor. Thanks for coming to the party.
