The Tipping Point and you rise
Celebrating Tears For Fears, the genius of Adrian Bliss and an intentional hamburger
👋 Hello enthusiast,
I hope the week was kind to you. Spring is here (at least in France) with all the positive vibes for a good summer ahead.
For the past two weeks, I have listened to the new masterpiece by Tears For Fears entitled ‘‘The Tipping Point’’. It is full of bounce back, vulnerability, hope, courage, awakening, and dare to speak.
Ageing with talent, grace and truth
Tears For Fears is an iconic band from the 8Os; I have known them all my life. They have always used their music to shed light on issues in our society and behaviours. Their new album affirms their leadership to voice and speaks Truth and awakening.
I must admit this piece is timeless; the production, vocals, lyrics, and imagery behind the album are beautiful. The music video "Break the man" is hypnotic and echoes so well with the lyrics.
The spirit and storytelling of Tears For Fears are ageing with grace.
The laugh / and discovery of a genius @storytelling
One of my most hilarious discoveries is Adrian Bliss. His sweetness, intelligence and capacity to make us think within popular culture is powerful. He tackles triggering themes and reveals the absurdity and comedy of how we are as a society over time. He creates a cute space for storytelling that empowers us to think and reflect on history, daily routines and behaviours. Well done Adrian!

That book = that designer
SHV Think Book 1996–1896 by Irma Boom is one of those books that imposes Respect for craftsmanship. Irma Boom is one of my favourite designers, a mentor and an inspiration on how to design beyond the object. She empowers every designer to take charge and invest in the making of books (their architecture) by taking the lead as a builder and co-builder.
A monograph is on the way as a tribute to what she taught me as an art student.
