Tradition is not a business model - Jonathan Worth, New Photographics

coventryuniversity — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 10:12:07 +0000

coventryuniversity — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 10:02:47 +0000

…..as part of a structure of dynamic learning methods, it also serves to embed the framework of sustainable practices that are relevant wherever the medium takes us in the future.
