On Tuesday we had a workshop with Clare and Julian, all of our group members have brought quite some interesting layout and had a discussion in the session. We all agree that before we decide on the layout, we want to have a clear direction of what is the topic of our publication, why are …

REALISE CRITIC
Today we had the critic with Kyunghwa, Nathan, Cato and Alex. It is an interesting combination and we got to hear feedback from all sorts of different opinions.
