wow- i can't even comprehend the amount of work I have to do this weekend. I am currently living under a pile of sketchbooks, pencils, pens and computers. Soon, it will all be on my bed like a heap of leaves, I will be hidden in there somewhere and rescuers will have to dig me out.
I finally purchased my ticket to London for February. I have a partial itenerary and it looks like we will not only check out tons of museums, designs studios and galleries, but also have a visit to the University of Reading and some type founderies and printing shops (the ancient kind, not the kinko's kind). Univerisity of Reading is probably the world's leading school in the study of type design. My current type teacher went there (as well as many important typographers) and Dutch type designer Gerard Unger is a teacher there. Super exciting, I really can't wait.
