Hitchcock

The only way to get rid of my fears is to make films about them.

The Flower

The flower is the poetry of reproduction.  

It is an example of the eternal seductiveness of life.  

(Jean Giraudoux)

Folding Experiments

I started thinking again about my printed portfolio and the business cards I have to make for myself. While making a portfolio book I suddenly thought: it might be much nicer to have a big folded piece of paper with an arrangement of work on it. One could unfold it and it would be like a poster one could put on the wall instead of shutting a book and putting it away again. And looking at business cards I realized that I do remember much more the cards, where there is something done to the paper than the cards with a nice picture on it. 

A business card could/should feel like a little present you can feel and play with. At least that's what makes me remember certain business cards. So I started to do some folding experiments to find out which ways of foldings:

- have an interesting shape when they are closed/opened

- leave a nice trace of lines when they are opened

- are easy to fold up again

- fit into the wallet (business cards)

And last but not least; a little hint on how I came up with the design of the Cs .

I got inspired by his audio monitors :)
