Artefact 242

Papercamp - this Saturday in London

Well hello

A very short email today, with the promise of a longer one afterwards. It has been a busy summer of talks, teaching, road trips and the like, and there is a lot to share.

But just for today, I’d like to draw your attention to an event called Papercamp 3 in London this coming Saturday, where I am giving a talk called 52 Things About Cards.

These are sticky notes, not cards, and I’ll talk about why that’s important during the talk. Probably.

Get a ticket here - it’s a fab line-up and it’s all about paper. What’s not to love?


This is the last talk I am giving in a sequence of many recent new ones.

It started with The Product of Design in June, followed by Colour or Advance: Four Frameworks for Design Futures at the RCA Design Futures Symposium, Do The Next Right Thing at Smashing Conference, and now we’re on to this. By the time I send the next email, hopefully I’ll have recordings to share of all four.

They are thematically related, but then push into some very different applications around a core philosophy.

I had also said I’d never write a book… and yet, I’m beginning to come around to it as an idea, perhaps.

Meanwhile, I’ve realised just how much fun I have putting the talks together, though equally also how much time they take up.

But generally, I am back doing talks as a regular thing, and if that’s of interest to your team, business, conference or whatever, then do get in touch.
