Visual Editionsis a book publisher, creative studio and reading lab. Founded by creative director Anna Gerber and strategist Britt Iversen, the duo works at the cross section of publishing, design and tech, such as its collaborative project with Google Creative Lab: Editions at Play. Anna and Britt will be speaking about the latest story to be brought to life via this experimental and immersive web based digital book platform.
The Anonymous Projectstarted around a year ago, a result of co-founder Lee Shulman’s obsession with collecting found photographic slides. Now, with 400,000 slides in the bank, the collection represents our shared history and acts as a “pool of artefacts of daily life” from the 1960s to the digital age. Lee and co-founder Emmanuelle Halkin will be telling us more.

At Nicer Tuesdays, John will delve into the latter, taking us behind the intricate creation process.
