This past Saturday was the ComPostModern conference, hosted by the San Francisco chapter of the AIGA. It's probably the best conference on sustainable design right now and not only was this its fifth year, but it was the best one yet. The organizers, Gaby Brink and Jim Hamlett, as well as their staff of volunteers created a flawless conference with truly inspiring and important knowledge to share. I actually spoke at the first ComPostModern conference way back in 2006 so it was nice to speak again. it felt like a complete circle--in a good way. I got to close the day with information largely from Design is the Problem. if you missed it, you can catch it on the WebCast for the next few months. There was also some great coverage on SFLUx (which is linked on Core77) and Le Petit Graphiste. Lastly, if you want a very short preview of the book, the slides from my talk are a ~30 minute summary of some of the best parts of the books.
