Folded.

For my dissertation, I have been researching how the printed page is evolving from paper to screen. With the development of the iPhone, the iPad and ebooks galore, will the page as we know it become redundant and obsolete? Poignantly, it's been revealed that design publication Grafik magazine is no more; due to the liquidation of its publishers, 'Adventures in Publishing'. I'm yet to find out the reasons for this break-down, but could this be a sign of things to come? A spokesperson from TeamGrafik assured its readers that the publication will still be available via its design blog online, but the question remains: is the print industry losing out to new technology? Interesting.
