DEAR STUDENTS

Dear All

Tomorrow will be our first session in design. I will introduce you to it. In the meanwhile I have created a blog where I will update info of your interest. Send me links to be published if you want. You should look at it every day as I will try to upload stuff regularly, as the course develops more and more relevant for your own work.
