A Peek at Richard Saul Wurman’s “33″

Posted: August 5th, 2009 | Author: Jane Gaboury | Filed under: Publications | Tags: , , |

Months ago I blogged about a work session we had here with Richard Saul Wurman as he launched into the creation of his newest book. 33: Understanding Change & the Change in Understanding is now almost complete.

How do I even begin to describe it? It’s a fable. It’s a fable wrapped around a 33-year-old illustrated keynote address Wurman delivered at the 1976 AIA convention. It’s a 33-part television script. It’s a fantastical allegory. It’s thought-provoking and charming.

Here’s a look at one of the spreads.

Hoping to go to the printer with this any day now. Look for it in September. Here’s a bit more about it from our press release.
