Tilendar 2009
If you remember the “tiles” (see below), you’ll probably like this calendar for 2009 where beautiful imageries have been put together around this concept, with photography and 3D renders by Jib. (preview of the images for the calendar’s interior) Tiles were introduced early in the collaborative story (Circle of Eights, p.229) in this entry, where Midora, a character in our future, uses her favourite handbook of symbols: […] So she had found a compass… Now, she...
