The internet is killing storytelling
“Click, tweet, e-mail, twitter, skim, browse, scan, blog, text: the jargon of the digital age describes how we now read, reflecting the way that the very act of reading, and the nature of literacy itself, is changing.

I don’t consider myself creative. For instance I don’t have ideas that I want to express that I make up myself. I can’t think of any personal projects I’ve ever done. I just don’t work that way. The reason why I became a designer is that I wanted people to come to me with problems that I could solve. I know how to do that. I can be creative with that. I feel like I am a doctor. I just can’t practice medicine on myself so I need patients who are sick. The sicker the better in fact.Graphic Designer Michael Bierut
