Extending our conversations about curiosity and process post-Unread, The Curiosity Issue (plus Andy Cruz of House Industries being one of our design heroes), we jumped on the opportunity to sponsor his AIGA Chicago lecture about his newest book, The Process Is The Inspiration.

Picture this. You walk to the lake, pop a squat on a cute picnic blanket, whip out some iced coffee, and just read. It is, in fact, possible—thanks to The New Yorker.

...but hear me out. I’ve already planned a watching marathon, and this adorable magazine just convinced me that giving L.O.T.R. a-go is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. Don’t miss out on this one.
