SCREENSHOTS is a monthly series of posts via which HILOBROW’s Josh Glenn reviews his most recent screenshots — before deleting them from the over-full Dropbox folder to which they’d been uploaded. Also see the PHOTO DUMP series.

This was a pleasant surprise!

Ramona Lyons and I are developing a deck of story cards with the aim of teaching our methodology in a fun, engaging way. The cards may have other uses as well. We’ve proposed using our cards and games/exercises for a “ludic workshop” at Semiofest Warsaw this coming May. The (insane) illustrations above were generated for our workshop proposal.
