As digital technology has advanced in the past decades, the traditionally print-based field of graphic design has also expanded and evolved. Using the vast array of new media available today, the modern graphic designer wields an entirely new vocabulary, and in it finds new opportunities: Television, CD-ROM design, and even retail spaces are now an opportunity for emotional expression. New Media and Graphic Design explores the nexus of novel creativity and the skills and ideas that give them life. Readers will find up-to-the-minute information on important designers, interesting exhibits, as well as a look at the changing experience of working in this exciting field.
Tricia Austin is a cultural theorist, and Richard Doust is a graphic and new media designer. Both authors are senior lecturers on the MA Communication Design course at Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design in London.
