Smell The Roses

Smell The Roses As part of Werkplaats Typografie's "Breaking Even", STR will take place at the LA Art Book Fair on F If not we can provide a camera for sharing.

As part of Werkplaats Typografie's "Breaking Even" workshop series, Smell The Roses is a kind of social therapy workshop set to take place at the LA Art Book Fair on Feb 1-Sat, 2014 from 11am-2pm @ MOCA. Please register at www.Breaking-Even.com

It is without a doubt that we as humans are easily distracted. “Smell the roses” is a common expression used to remind ourselves to stop and live in the m

oment. Often times, we become so distracted by our own fixations, or visual obsessions that everything else around us becomes a blur or goes unnoticed. The purpose of this workshop is to guide people through the discovery of moments hidden or masked by our own tunnel vision. With the simple technique of image and frame we can bring light to moments that would otherwise be lost forever. These re-framed images will also act as a photographic timestamp of the LA Art Book Fair that document and amplify the many personalities that inhabit the space. There will be printed postcards of the framed images, designed and printed directly in the space with the participants. Workshop Requirements:

Please bring a digital camera or have a smart phone handy for picture taking. Thank you, hope you participate and stop by for a visit!

For this year’s LA Art Book Fair the Werkplaats Typografie is asking for the public to participate in a series workshops based around the notion of breaking-even. The aim of the workshops is to create a self-sufficient event at the fair which explores ways in which participants can break-even. These workshops form the content for a limited edition book which is distributed amongst the contributors.

In economics breaking-even is described when expenses and revenue are completely equal. In this case the school is approaching breaking-even as a social form to organize a shared experience where everyone benefits from the outcome.

While fairs are typically a commercial gathering, they equally provide a space for social exchange and a sharing of knowledge. With all of the costs involved to be present at the fair, many exhibitors and shops strive to cancel out these costs. The school is interested in making this a deliberate intention, to see if something can be made from nothing, for nothing.
