It all sounds like your scene is designing for the accolades and not designing to improve life. Alex’s post is pretty indicitive of the attitude you will find in Wburg in general…

The idea that “we are doing the avant-garde stuff so we deserve…..”

Isn’t that subjective? It all sounds like your scene is designing for the accolades and not designing to improve life.

Yes, we work together and push it out to the press. But we have worked for it. Trust me, I am grateful we got the press, but at the same time there were some inacuracies with it.<br/><br/>I am sure everyone else will have their time to shine out there but realize that all of us have worked very hard for over 10 years in the industry and we are finally getting our due. We have all worked for the Boyms, Koonz, and many other avant garde designers. It's been a long road.<br/><br/>I see other brooklyn, NY, and US designers gettign press all the time. Give it a chance, work hard, get your press kits together and work the field instead of being upset. Channel that energy.
