4.0 out of 5 stars A very interesting read..., September 7, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: The Digital Designer: The Graphic Artist's Guide to the New Media (Paperback)
Having worked in digital design and education for nearly ten years I found this book to be interesting and informative. I recommend it to my students as it is broad in its scope and in the work analyzed. In the fast-changing "new media" world many of the individuals interviewed have gone on to do other works/projects of worth. (As a one-time member of Echo, I'm not sure what the other reviewer means -- very few individuals listed were ever Echo members. My guess is that acquaintances were forged professionally and through the Interactive Telecommunications Program at NYU.)

3.0 out of 5 stars Not all that it's cracked up to be, July 3, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: The Digital Designer: The Graphic Artist's Guide to the New Media (Paperback)
The Digital Designer is interesting in that its kind of a survey of who was hot, or doing something in New Media in 1997. Many of the people in this book have no other reason for being in it other than the fact that they are friends of the primary writer, Daniel Drennan. Drennan spent many years as a participant in the ECHONYC.COM BBS system in New York City. It was there that he forged most of these acquaintances.

The book might have been more interesting if he had looked farther afield for his content.
