The Case Press
The visiting professional of the week is Barrie Tullet of The Caseroom Press, a old friend of Fred's. The Caseroom Press deals in books and publications and he brought it a wide range of things for us to look at. I learned quite a lot about the book binding process in the short workshop that he held after the talk. In particular I loved his personal project illustrating Dante's The Divine Comedy using typography. It was a huge project spanning over 21 years and he's still only a 3rd of the way through. I would love to see all of them in a publication together.
He also brought us a present too. We're quite good at getting freebies it would seem. It's a newspaper that was produced by the students at Lincoln School of Art and Design.

Cardonizer
I'm a little late in blogging about this one in truth, it happened just before christmas and I only just remembered to blog about it. I got this email below to my Behance account from the webmaster of Cardonizer, a collection of the best business cards. He wanted to feature my Woody Adams identity on his website, and I of course said yes.
It took a little while to show up on the website, but he sent me a message when it was up, and linked me to it which was nice.
And a few people have re-blogged/re-tweeted it or whatever, which is nice.

Generation Press
The wonderful Generation Press came in to talk to us today as our 'Friday Visiting Professional' and he brought Anand back with him! It was a good talk and they brought lots of gorgeous printed material for us to rummage through and keep what we wanted pretty much. Very nice of them.
It was a good talk and interesting to listen to. It makes me want to visit GP but with no money and no transport that's a little bit difficult for me.
They brought us a present too, which therefore sets the bar for all visiting professionals in the future.
Specifically for us, ooer.
It was a really nice white foil that the photograph didn't really pick up the detail of. Anand is their adopted northerner so it's sort of a running joke.
