Chosen Quote

Technology quote 1


Erik Spiekermann - Interview in Creative Characters Dec 2014
   'What I find very interesting is the movement of people who are savvy in digital design but are genuinely interested in analog techniques. It is now more than a passing trend; there must be a deeper motive why we are newly interested in the hand-made and the haptic, material and three-dimensional aspects of type and design.'

Words within the quote that could be useful


Passing trend –->  A thing  that used to be popular for a while, but has faded away and is not as popular, was only popular for a small amount of time


Savvy --> well informed individual


Analog techniques --> technique with a physical property - done by hand for example


Trend --> a general direction in which something is going towards


Haptic - relating to the sense of touch, in particular relating to the perception and manipulation of objects using the senses of touch and proprioception

I decided to choose this quote because I think the handmade process has changed hugely from when it was first introduced which is something that interests me greatly.
