finished and ordered the book with carla

finally the colab book of nightmares is done and ordered. Its so nuts but I think I will love it when it comes back. Heres to hoping the colours look good as who really knows [y u no let me have a colour profile lulu?]

contraints book

So I have not really said much about this yet. But here is the progress on the constraints book as it is getting put together in indesign:

After a bit of deliberation the size is now A5 [which is good because it is pretty default] and the text is all in Liberation [because I'm into this open source thing and this book will probably be creative commons released] We are using the mono, serif and sans for different things. The mono is the collective voice, headers, and the like. The serif is my voice, and the sans is Carla’s. This works better than my original wish to use one type voice for both our writing.

We shot some good studio type images of the examples at Wills house [thanks]. Dun a bit of weird photoshop on it for fun.

The grid is pretty simple. 3 rows and 5 columns. On a baseline also durrr.

It is doing pretty well but of course the hardest bit is the writing. And that is going pretty well but there is still quite a bit left to do and still editing.

We are including other interesting but slightly unrelated stuff in big brackets like this.

So yeah…
