Smell The Roses

today we smell the roses again, in a deep rain of snow.

Thanks to those who took part in the Smell The Roses workshop. It was a fun time hanging out and creating postcards with you.

Till we meet again!

No place better than LA! There's still room so hurry and sign up for a workshop @ MOCA LA!

For this year’s LA Art Book Fair the Werkplaats Typografie is asking for the public to participate in a series workshops based around the notion of breaking-even. The aim of the workshops is to create a self-sufficient event at the fair which explores ways in which participants can break-even. These workshops form the content for a limited edition book which is distributed amongst the contributors.

In economics breaking-even is described when expenses and revenue are completely equal. In this case the school is approaching breaking-even as a social form to organize a shared experience where everyone benefits from the outcome.

While fairs are typically a commercial gathering, they equally provide a space for social exchange and a sharing of knowledge. With all of the costs involved to be present at the fair, many exhibitors and shops strive to cancel out these costs. The school is interested in making this a deliberate intention, to see if something can be made from nothing, for nothing.
