Creative Code

I just got a copy of the newly published Creative Code by John Maeda. Very conceptual, tons of images and ironically, not a single line of code. "...This book presents the most fascinating work, arranged by themes that apply to today's digital design issues: programmatic space, living information, typography, tools, interaction design and education. Each section also features two essays by leading names in the field of interaction and digital design, such as Casey Reas, David Small, Yugo Nakamura, Joshua Davis and Gillian Crampton-Smith. Red Burns contributes a foreword. " amazon link
