The end is nigh. And while blood may not flood the streets and no one will witness the four horsemen galloping around the corner of 57th and Park, things are about to change. A quick click over to YouTube to see how that video you made is performing, or a stopover to blog on Blogger in between meetings will become a thing of the past. But is that a good thing?

What do you get when you combine a Pritzker, a Fan and a Handbag? It has been called everything from “genius” to “commercialization gone awry” to a “Star Trek –style spacecraft.” Whether you love or hate it, the 7.500 square foot epicenter where architecture, art and fashion collide is landing in Central Park in October.

Journalists write. They don’t design.
With newspapers nationwide suffering from lost advertising, revenue, and market share, how can we imagine a solution that can breathe new life into these failing brands? The start of some of my thinking is of the role designers may have in saving the newspaper. A new breed I am calling the "designalist".

DMDers Justin and Carla started a book share here in the office. So I brought in all the books I've read recently. But once the sorting began at home, I discovered some treausres in the magazine world too. Take a look.

DMD set out on the first of our summer outings yesterday. We took a tour of the architecture and design galleries at MoMA lead by Christian Larsen, curatorial assistant. Recharged, we are now making a once a month outing as a team over the summer. More on the power of escape, what we saw (and heard) after the jump.

I've admired Tim Russert since before he joined Meet The Press. As a young political organizer I recall seeing him on NBC during the 1988 election. Studying the art of rhetoric, I watched with intrigue during the 1992 Election when he grilled the primary candidates. On Friday, many of us at DMD crowded around the TV to hear the news of his passing and expressed the same sense of having lost a respected friend. The rest of this weekend has been non-stop coverage of this giant in the world of journalism. After the jump, I don’t have much to say so I created a word cloud from the New York Times, LA Times, and Washington Post obituaries. I like the idea of remembering him through words; it reminds me of what he taught me each Sunday morning.

Saturday night I had the privilege of participating in a small salon organized by my friend
Caitlin Dover, an editor at
Print magazine (they just won a National Magazine Award!). As the event was an intimate affair, each person presenting a project they were working on from essays, to music, to photography and illustrations, I won’t reveal what each person was pursuing, but I will reveal what, in just a few short hours, it taught me.
