The Something or Nothing Test
01 / The Purist
A tester declined to read this site because I’d used AI for the logo and layout. Interesting, but no point arguing.
02 / The Invoice That Never Existed
This project has a budget of zero. There was no design commission to cancel, no illustrators’ fees waiting to be paid. The choice was to use the tools available or leave the ideas in my notebook. Get on the bus, or don’t travel. I got on the bus.
03 / Spanish Sounds Fun
Still, the criticism got me thinking about other things I couldn’t do on my own. Spanish sounds fun. So do French, German, Hindi, Norwegian, Igbo and pure Brixtonian. The translation budget remains zero, but now there’s something to experiment with. That’s the Something or Nothing test: would the work otherwise happen? In this case, no.
04 / Hmmm
I might as well prove the point.
