Collaborative site.
I have begun transforming one of my sites and expanded it to include a wider circle of collaborators and researchers. The new version of MediaRDLab will serve as both an aggregator of current research interests of its members as well as space for collaboration and promotion.

This an interesting type appropriating Disney vernacular. Apparently, global brands are really global.

Media Design – into the future
In addition to observing, reflecting on the world and creating of design expressions, I’m called to help with the substantial redesign of the Media Design program. It is a work of progress:

Ajman Graffiti
Interestingly, I have noticed very little graffiti in UAE. Needless to say, it was very peculiar to see a writing on the, wall which was concerned very little with style and more with messaging.

Designer Bubble
While traveling in Bulgaria, I am on a constant lookout for internet connection. I discovered the availability of high speed free internet connection on many reputable gas stations. Setting shop in one in a gas station coffee-shop for an hour or two, I got absorbed in my internet activities. In customary fashion I put my headphones on with streaming US National Public Radio. As I was ready to leave I realized that I was completely transported to my typical US routines while remaining oblivious about my international setting. I’m still not clear whether to rejoice or lament. Time will tell.
Poster series
Walking by a fence in Minz, Germany, something interesting caught my eye. Multiple copies of an event poster were attached to the fence. The most peculiar aspect of them was not the layout but the impact they sustained. They have been stricken at approximately the same spot. As part of the poster has peeled off, the background was peaking through blending with the layout. Perhaps without visible intent and awareness a passer by unintentionally participated in an evolving design process.
