When looking up at reliable sources like Wikipedia and Google, the word gossip: ''Originates from God-sib, he Godparent of one's child, referring to a relationship of close friendship'' and it is also: '' An event between loose mouthed assholes, that happens as soon as you get into high-school, and follows you all the way to your death bed. It never ends.'' It is also: '' In it's form one of the oldest and most common means of spreading and sharing facts, with a reputation of errors and other variations'' This we of course found highly interesting so we did this book based on that, about the variations of a story when it comes from the same source. To try it out we asked people from the graphics design department in the Rietveld Academy, to re-tell us a story we are supposed to know better than others.

Even though guidelines for charging exist, we often have to negotiate our prices. The texts in this book are based on interviews made in 2006/2007 with freelance graphic designers. They range from students and beginners to designers with many years of professional experience, from a one-man ste-up tp a bigger studio with employees. Inside you'll find a wild, wide range of prices, different ways of calculating a price, problems, strategies, principles, numbers and a lot of zeros.

Résumé:
We're filling up the world with technology and devices, but we've lost sight of an important question: What is this stuff for? What value does it add to our lives? So asks author John Thackara in his new book, “In the Bubble: Designing for a Complex World”. These are tough questions for the pushers of technology to answer. Our economic system is centred on technology, so it would be no small matter if "tech" ceased to be an end-in-itself in our daily lives. Technology is not going to go away, but the time to discuss the end it will serve is before we deploy it, not after. We need to ask what purpose will be served by the broadband communications, smart materials, wearable computing, and connected appliances that we're unleashing upon the world. We need to ask what impact all this stuff will have on our daily lives. Who will look after it, and how? ”In the Bubble” is about a world based less on stuff and more on people. Thackara describes a transformation that is taking place now -- not in a remote science fiction future; it's not about, as he puts it, "the schlock of the new" but about radical innovation already emerging in daily life. We are regaining respect for what people can do that technology can't. In the Bubble describes services designed to help people carry out daily activities in new ways. Many of these services involve technology -- ranging from body implants to wide-bodied jets. But objects and systems play a supporting role in a people-centred world. The design focus is on services, not things. And new principles -- above all, lightness -- inform the way these services are designed and used. At the heart of In the Bubble is a belief, informed by a wealth of real-world examples, that ethics and responsibility can inform design decisions without impeding social and technical innovation.

Résumé:
Finally, we are learning that simplicity equals sanity. We're rebelling against technology that's too complicated, DVD players with too many menus, and software accompanied by 75-megabyte "read me" manuals. The iPod's clean gadgetry has made simplicity hip. But sometimes we find ourselves caught up in the simplicity paradox: we want something that's simple and easy to use, but also does all the complex things we might ever want it to do. In "The laws of simplicity", John Maeda offers ten laws for balancing simplicity and complexity in business, technology, and design -guidelines for needing less and actually getting more. Maeda - a professor in MIT's Media Lab and a world-renowned graphic designer - explores the question of how we can redefine the notion of "improved" so that it doesn't always mean something more, something added on. Maeda's first law of simplicity is "Reduce." It's not necessarily beneficial to add technology features just because we can. And the features that we do have must be organized (Law 2) in a sensible hierarchy so users aren't distracted by features and functions they don't need. But simplicity is not less just for the sake of less. Skip ahead to Law 9: "Failure : accept the fact that some things can never be made simple." Maeda's concise guide to simplicity in the digital age shows us how this idea can be a cornerstone of organizations and their products -how it can drive both business and technology. We can learn to simplify without sacrificing comfort and meaning, and we can achieve the balance described in Law 10. This law, which Maeda calls "The One," tells us: "Simplicity is about subtracting the obvious, and adding the meaningful."
