John Maeda, TDC BCCKS

John Maeda designed a minibook for the anniversary of the Tokyo Type Director’s Club that is running as an exhibition this month in Tokyo at a variety of venues including Tsutaya Roppongi, Ginza Graphic Gallery, and Aoyama Book Center. The contents are visible here.

Who's John Maeda? World-renowned Japanese-American graphic designer, artist, comptuer scientist, and MIT professor. Esquire magazine recognized him as one of the 21 most important people for the 21st century.
I was fortunate enough to see his Post Digital exhibit at NTT ICC back in 2001.

Thanks for the comment Peter. I just started my little blog on New Year's, so I don't get must traffic. Didn't realize Jean Snow linked to me. Nice!

Yeah, I saw Maeda's TED Talk, however I have issues with his writing on the Laws of Simplicity. Just don't feel like he's really nailed it yet.
