My recent book Process Music is reviewed by Gabriela Matuszyk in the latest issue of Eye magazine. Matuszyk says “The book does a great job in containing core design issues, themes, figures and objects by making them accessible through humour, observational storytelling and self-referential framing. For me, Process Music was energising, a reminder that the process of reading and writing is fundamental to self-reflection, criticism and designing.”
In addition, Rick Poynor discusses the book’s cover concept in context with other self-referential art and design works, in his Critique article, “This is a column.” Of the book’s cover/interior concept, Poynor says, “It would be hard to imagine how any designer could take this concept any further. FitzGerald has succeeded in imbuing a pictureless sequence of critical texts with that all-important, value-adding ‘object quality’ demanded by contemporary buyers.”
