Semi-Permanent 05

Thank you Semi-Permanent! The two day showcase (I missed the first day) of “super-species” designers completed successfully with Joshua Davis‘ hilarious “becoming tool” presentation, complete with photographs of Tool’s (the band) gas-station-quality toilet / trophy room. Chuck Anderson gave his brutally amateurish, but pure and honest power talk on freelance 101. Visionaire presented their incredible fashion publication from their humble beginnings to the ultra-luxurious. And Elizabeth Diller from Diller Scofidio+ Renfro packed her presentation with projects most of us only dream we have.
