Description |
IT'S A SKETCHBOOK shows a collection of new blank documents opened while starting a digital desktop or pad software, dealing with writing, drawing, painting or sketching. These print-screen pages show how computer technology relate to real sketch-book-look from very simple, empty looking pages to more well-equipped palettes of tools, offering to users many instruments and functions to make the creative process faster and less complicated. |

Statement |
Looking at these screen-shots in a book give us a feeling we've never experienced before. Looking at them in a horizontal position with artboards surrounded by tens of functions then sometimes reducing the size of an artboard to a very small area. It can raise a question of when imitation of reality goes too far — sometimes you can recognize almost a real note-book look, containing a leather cover or a part of an o-wire binding. At the same time the publication is also illuminating an archive of software that we might have never used before. In fact it still deals with digital culture and the popular obsession and with having your own sketchbook to make notes or just to record your creativity in the exact moment. |
