No doubt cries of ‘bang-for-buck’ and ’say to no to spec-work’ were bantered [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[

For many years now words have been my companion. Though not as avid a reader as I would like to suggest and though not as dedicated a writer as I would like to imagine, nonetheless playing with words is part of my repertoire. For me, concepts are always language-based (and therefore meaning-based). Design comes second [...]]]></description>

Recently I asked a class of around twenty: How many of you have used the internet already today? All of them raised their hands. How many of you have read the newspaper in the past [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am a wind sock.
Attached to a rock, a pole, a pivot point.
Held there with wire, fishing line, chain or bits of string;
Easily showing which way the wind is blowing.
(or if it is blowing at all)
Without the steadfast,
something deeply driven, a cemented footing,
I am more like a plastic bag.
Full of promise or disappointment.

As part of the Citymine(d) Brussels Micronomics Festival, this project is an extension from a previous narrative poster project (The City and its Stories). The concept of micronomics concerns itself with people actioning small, experimental initiatives of exchange. Shifting the communicative nature of the poster this series offers a fictional city-narrative translated into the 12 [...]]]></description>
