This year the
Royal College of Art’s catalog for graduating
Communication Art & Design (CAAD) students was composed of responses to three different conversation prompts. (See catalog for full descriptions:
Fact and fiction in a digital context;
The value of things—Material artefacts in a digital world;
New models for publishing.) Respondents to these prompts included students,
RCA staff and external designers, critics, architects and artists. And of course, your humble, X-Files obsessed narrator—having previously participated as a visiting critic for the
How-to How-to workshop and the
Blackberry workshop. And so this
strange little X-Files tribute series has now spun off a small printed piece entitled
Trust No One. The beautifully designed catalog is of course full of
CAAD creativity and if you have the opportunity to acquire one (or better yet, meet with the graduating
CAAD students) I strongly suggest that you do. —Stewart
