Remember when I said that I’ve done the last graphic for this magazine yesterday? Well, I did another one just a few minutes ago. One big point of critique for my last magazine was the not understandable concept. And indeed, it is complicated. So I designed a graphic for the beginning of the magazine, that uses a data about the kind of sources for this magazine as an explanation, how it works. I hope that’s enough - I’ll see in my next round of feedback, I guess.
I also designed the source list for this magazine. I thought about separating text from images in the source list, but the spreadsheet with just text looks so…uninteresting. I also kind of finalized the table of contents today (which means: If I won’t have time to touch it again, it can be printed like this), but I’m afraid the TOC needs to look more (or less) like the source list - or the other way round. I hope I’ll still have time tomorrow for this.
Tomorrow! It’s the last day in the process of designing the second magazine. Meaning: I have a deadline, tomorrow at midnight. To be honest, I thought about extending the deadline - I just travelled too much in the last weeks, without working. I prepared the presentation for Facing Pages, which took more than a few hours; I travelled to Arnhem and at least three times to Berlin. But well. I think the magazine as it is right now is good enough to get printed. And I like getting stuff done till deadlines…it would feel like cheating if I would extend it.
By the way, tomorrow midnight is also another important date: Half of my Master’s Thesis time passed already! Nine weeks are over, and I have still nine weeks to go till the 16th of June.
