Designer’s Plight
Inspired by the way my hands and wrists always ache anymore, and dedicated to any designers and artists out there who have developed carpal tunnel or tendinitis from their work.
By Seth Print Thompson
I’m basically just waiting for the day when this becomes a reality for me…
I’ve read some criticisms of Instagram (in general, apart from the new terms of use fiasco) that herald it as fake—essentially just a tool for making your life appear ‘cooler’ than it is, searching for validation through that somehow. And I think that’s very possible, people can definitely use it in that way. Who hasn’t posted something (on any type of social media platform) expecting a certain amount of ‘likes,’ or whatever. I am included in this. Yet my view on the usefulness of Instagram is much more optimistic, I believe. I think it is a way of collecting moments that you can look back on, collecting beautiful things to be in awe of. Yes they are cliche, but pictures of nature scenes or coffee cups are comforting to me. When I scroll through the pictures I have posted, I am reminded what a beautiful life I live. Yes, the pictures have been edited, but isn’t our outlook on life a filter in and of itself? I hope that I always choose a filter of joy and thankfulness.

Demon Hill #2
Climb into Julian Hoeber’s Demon Hill #2 and feel your perception of space slip away.
The mystery spot, also known as a “gravity hill,” is a uniquely American scam. They are (supposed) sites of gravitational anomaly, where visitors will feel queasy, scared, and disturbed. In reality, they’re tourist attractions—off-kilter structures that play tricks on your brain and inner ear. You’ll find quite a few of them in California, where artist Julian Hoeber lives and works.
