The opinion

Magazine -> #6 Orientation

The best way to predict the future? Plan for it, give it form, mould it around one’s dreams. Work at it, build it up bit-by-bit, clearly setting down the goals to be achieved, the route to be followed, the actions to be taken.

Magazine -> #20 Home Made

In his essay "How to write a dissertation", Umberto Eco recommends that students avoid playing the part of the solitary genius holed up in their room, writing.

The intention doesn’t matter

Magazine -> #21 Senti-mentally

In front a cup of coffee. For me, the expression of emotion is never calculated. I’ll wager that emotion is always there if the work is motivated by pleasure and desire. Since I often have too many ideas or desires, I usually start each project with endless lists, which I then cut into little strips and arrange in order of preference to make ...
