An Introduction to TDR Massage: Focus on the Hand
By Linda LePelley, RN, NMT
Tissue Density Restoration (TDR) Massage is based on the theory that musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction increases in direct association with an elevation in tissue density (TD). As the density of affected tissue is reduced, pain is reduced and function improves.Through the processes of determining the locations and grades of elevated TD and then treating them with TDR Massage, or any other effective massage method, one is able to compile relevant data that is useful for assessment, planning of care, evaluating the effectiveness of the care given, as well as sharing and retaining that information through documentation.
After seeking treatment for severe hand, wrist and arm pain, and undergoing tortuous electro-diagnostic testing, my neurologist diagnosed me with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. He predicted that failure to undergo bilateral hand surgeries would result in loss of the use of both my hands within a year. Because I was hesitant to risk surgery, I made the informed decision to put off scheduling the operations for a few weeks. I created a plan of care for myself, the result of which was the development of TDR Massage.
TDR Massage adheres to the same contraindications, follows the same distal to proximal pathways and uses many of the same basic movements of classic massage. It differentiates from other modalities in its meticulous nature and focus, and because of the protracted amount of time often required to facilitate change in the condition of the tissues. It is, however, time well spent. In my opinion, a good, relaxing, full-body massage takes about an hour. TDR Massage literally "zooms in" on the locus of discomfort and stays there until a change has been affected. It can take 30 to 45 minutes of focused work to attain the condition required in the tissues to be able to achieve that change. It is unreasonable to expect a significant or lasting improvement in dense tissue to occur, and get a full body massage within the same hour. It is for this reason that many people, even massage therapists themselves, are unaware of the profound transformation they are able to facilitate, and look upon therapeutic massage as a feel-good but temporary measure. Beneficial and measurable changes in the tissues take place, given enough time to do so. One would not expect to have an orthodontist remove braces after a month, or to have the cast of a broken limb removed after a couple of days. Elevated TD develops over time, and time is required to change it.
My reasons for introducing TDR Massage by focusing on the hands are three-fold. First, I want to show massage therapists that TDR Massage is an effective modality. The second reason is to demonstrate uniform documentation which clearly exposes outcomes and the third reason is so massage therapists have a great need for hand care and maintenance. A treatment that your client appreciates is good - a treatment that you know works well and you have experienced firsthand is great – and a treatment you can prove effective is, of course, priceless.
Mapping Your Progress
It is important to create a record of the condition of the tissues before administering TDR Massage. This documentation gives you, "before and after" information, which makes it possible to evaluate the outcomes of treatment and share the results. Also, it serves as a reminder of the initial severity of the condition, something people often forget once relief has been attained. Draw a TD map by using a simple diagram of the front and back of your hands and forearms up to the elbow. You are going to closely inspect each of them and record your findings on the diagram, making any additional notes you believe to be relevant.
There are guidelines for the procedure of TDR Massage, and sound reasons for them. In this introduction, I am limiting myself to discussing the basics of what you need to know to restore your hands. The most important principle of TDR is to stay at or below about a 3 on the 1-10 pain scale, whether you are examining the condition or providing the treatment. Never go over a 3, as pain is counter-productive and initiates or extends the inflammatory response which exacerbates the condition.
Using the fingers of one hand, begin your examination of the other. Applying what you consider to be moderate pressure, press into each millimeter of every spot from the tips of your fingers and work your way to the end of your elbows. I have found that normal, healthy tissue does not hurt when you press into it, even firmly. Use whatever symbols are meaningful to you and mark your TD map with all you find. Be sure to include the pain levels (I find the basic 1-10 scale very helpful). You may discover areas that have nodules, gristly sensations, skin on bone, lumpy areas or places where the tissue is hard and rubbery. Document these, and any other findings, even if they are not painful. You will want to roll your finger or thumb around over the tips of the fingers, press into the webbed area between your fingers, pinch the sides of the fingers and bend each joint as you check it. With your hand laid flat, press over each fingernail to search for hidden pain spots. Make note of any cracking or popping, restrictions or hesitations in movement. Work your way to the palms, press into and roll around on each bone in your hand. Don't forget the lateral aspect of the hand between the ulnar head and small finger. Be cautious on the backs of your hands to avoid bruising, and do not use excessive pressure over the carpal tunnel. In the same thorough manner, work your way to the elbow, leaving no spot unchecked. You now have a basic, "before" picture.
You will want to prepare your work area, which should be comfortable and warm with no drafts, and you may want to heat any cream or oil you plan to use as well. Start by soaking your hand and forearm up to the elbow in very warm water for a few minutes, dry thoroughly with a warm towel, moving all the tissues around the bones. While you may not progress far from the fingers and palm in the course of the initial treatment, you still want the lymphatic pathways open to facilitate the clearing of debris and to encourage circulation.
Place your finger or thumb on the tip of the digit you are starting with; press into it, move the tissue around and search for any tightness, tingle, twinge or pain and using your TDR map as a guide. When you find a "bad" spot (tender or painful), massage it gently but firmly, as if you are trying to reach and move the periosteum of the bone underneath it. Take whatever time is required to work until the pain is gone. Remember the rule, keep any pain level around 3, and then just keep doing it until the pain melts away. You will find that there can be extreme differences in the level of pain from one spot to the next, often a barely measurable distance away. You will need to adjust the pressure and force you use to account for those different levels. Use the finger or hand that is being treated to assist by flexing, extending and resisting; helping hunt down and clear out the smallest pain points. Once that first spot is restored, move over a millimeter, find the next spot and repeat until you are done. Every now and then, shake your hand. Use a warm towel to grasp the area you are working on and gently move the tissue all around in wide, generalized, circular motionsas this helps reveal tender or painful spots. Be sure to work the cartilage of every joint. Our thumb joints and the base of our index fingers are, of course, usually the most affected. I chose to treat them each session for a short while, but then moved on to areas that were not difficult. My thumb pad took the longest to clear, and while the rest of the hand stays good for months, it is this area that requires the greatest maintenance. I've found it to generally be the case for others as well. You will find that every spot that hurts is denser than those that do not hurt, and every dense spot that is restored stops hurting. This is not to say that every dense spot hurts, however, given enough time, they likely will.
You may find areas that seem to be skin over bone, with little or no flesh involved. Press gently into them and massage over the bone, particularly at the margins where there is palpable muscle or connective tissue below the skin. Assuring that the muscles of the forearm are plump and easily mobilized can have a dramatic improvement of hand strength. Excessively tight musculature needs the same close attention. People say, "Well, at least I'm firm," when in actuality, the tissues are condensed and often have experienced a loss of strength and flexibility. You may be surprised to find that hard, knotted, ropy muscles will plump back up with warmth and massage. By doing so, not only are the muscles improved, but drainage pathways are restored as well.
The amount of time required to complete the TDR varies from person to person and seems to be determined in large part by the length of time the TD has been elevated. I found the treatment made my hands feel better in just a couple of days. Within a week I knew it was going to work so I cancelled my appointment to schedule the surgeries. After about six weeks of daily treatment my hands were not just better, they were as good as they had ever been. By this time, I'd learned that every pain or discomfort has a relative degree of elevated density associated with. I've gone on to treat several different hand problems, such as trigger finger, tendonitis, and arthritis with the same good results. I make it a policy to teach my clients how to maintain their improved hands or feet.
While I have not gone into advanced assessment and treatment methods at this time, there is enough information provided here to make a positive, lasting change in the condition of hurting hands. You will want to map and document your progress and the final results.
So often we've heard arthritis described as, "Degenerative Joint Disease," but I believe that rather than a disease of degeneration, it is actually an affliction of accumulation. I look at the x-rays of hands, crippled by arthritis and see that while the involved cartilage and soft tissue has become overgrown and gnarled, the individual bones retain their shape and appearance within the ghostly white, cloudy images. I am convinced that when these bones become dislodged and dislocated, with catastrophic deformation and loss of function, it is due to the tension exerted upon them by the buildup of mineralized plaque, coupled with contracting fascia. That which appears to be "bone-on-bone" degeneration of cartilage is actually a hypo-hydrated crust, the restoration of which can result in the return of normal joint articulation, relief of pain and return of mobility. I believe the crust of arthritis, considered to be an overgrowth of bone, is in actuality a sort of plaque which, over time, accumulates an aggregation of minerals and eventually becoming hard and bone-like. However, this formation is based on a plaque-like matrix and plaque is about 60% fat, which melts. Using warmth and focused, persistent massage, the plaques melt away and the minerals dissolve and are flushed away with the tissues re-hydrated and restored to normal function.
While most operations are necessary and indispensable, it seems inappropriate to risk surgery or take a surgeon's valuable time for a condition that is manually treatable. Massage should be the first line of treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome, trigger finger and Dupuytren's Disease, rather than a last ditch, "I'll try this because I've tried everything else and it didn't work," approach for these and other non-trauma related hand disorders.

Jesus, cradled in a manger,
For us facing every danger,
Living as a homeless stranger,
Make we thee our King most dear.
Jesus, for thy people dying,
Risen Master, death defying,
Lord in heaven, thy grace supplying,
Keep us to thy presence near.
Jesus, who our sorrows bearest,
All our thoughts and hopes thou sharest,
Thou to man the truth declarest;
Help us all thy truth to hear.
Lord, in all our doings guide us;
Pride and hate shall neer divide us;
Well go on with thee beside us,
And with joy well persevere.
John Mason Neale (1818-1866)
Quem pastores laudavere (The one whom the shepherds praised) is the opening of a Latin carol evoking the worship of the shepherds and wise men. It can be traced to a manuscript of 1410 at Hohenfuhrt Abbey in Germany, but is a timeless melody, a kind of gentle dance.

Expanding Medicaid: Congress will keep its word!
Under Obamacare, states initially were forced to expand Medicaid eligibility to families earning as much as 133 percent of the federal poverty level. The Supreme Court struck down the mandate as unconstitutional, so the expansion is up to each state.
A majority of the House Health, Human Services and Elderly Affairs Committee concluded that expansion "would be a vehicle for bringing hundreds of millions of federal dollars into the state." It said also that the "Medicaid expansion and its federal financing/matching rate are enshrined in federal law. Changing either of these federal government obligations would require an Act of Congress."
Goodness, an act of Congress! Why, Congress's word is as good as... as.... hey, wait a second.
If your best argument is that Congress will keep its word, then you don't have an argument. No one - literally, to use a Bidenism - believes that Washington will enshrine into permanency a subsidy it already cannot afford to fund. The argument mocks itself. Those making it have let themselves become tools of the administration's propaganda machine. They are undermining New Hampshire's future fiscal stability for the sake of advancing the Obama administration's political goals. They should be stopped. Passing House Bill 271, to prohibit the state's expansion of Medicaid, would do that, for now. It's too bad the House hasn't the will to do it.

In this thread, you explain to others why you use the forums and why are you so compelled to use them.
For me, I actually found a website where I can relate to users on some different level that isn't my normal everyday life. I guess it's my split personality because if I said this shit IRL people would think I'm insane… And I also like how they are set up. Many lulz and friendships have been made. I'm just happy to have found this site and be a member. That is all.

The US Federal Communications Commission has voted 3-2 to support its chairman's "Net neutrality" plan for keeping Internet providers from blocking or otherwise interfering with legal content running through their "pipes," the Wall Street Journal reports. The plan had its critics (the vote split along party lines with the 2 Republican commissioners voting against and the 3 Democratic ones voting for, the Boston Globe reports), however my ConnectSafely co-director Larry Magid wrote in the San Jose Mercury News that, the vote "is neither a government takeover of the Internet nor a complete sell-out to the telecommunications industry. Like President Barack Obama who appointed him, FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski is a pragmatist who fashioned a compromise that doesn't go nearly as far as some would like but provided some protection for consumers and businesses against broadband providers." What does all this have to do with the average householder? The Journal says "consumers haven't had a problem viewing whatever they want online; few instances have arisen of an Internet provider blocking or slowing services. Rather, the FCC rules are designed to prevent potential future harms and they could shape how Americans access and use the Internet years from now. In the future, the Internet industry will be increasingly centered around the fastest-growing categories of Internet traffic—online video, gaming and mobile services, analysts say." For interesting historical perspective, here's Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak's open letter to the FCC – "Keep the Internet Free" in The Atlantic.

I had jury duty on a mon and was fired that fri. Employer wanted check from the courts in return for my regular wages. Since I was fired before I got the check from the court, former employer wants me to go in and pay them the $10 so I can get paid for the monday I served jury duty. Can't they just subtract $10 from my paycheck so I don't have to go in to my former place of employment?
You should check with an employment attorney in your case. It may be illegal in your state to fire someone who was on jury duty.

Bradley Beal should study ...
Here's a veteran the Wizards' rookie guard should seek to emulate
Originally Published: April 12, 2013By David Thorpe | Scouts Inc.
Beal is a silky-smooth shooter who seems a tad undersized to be an elite starting shooting guard. But his length and athleticism help him get over the size issue, much like those qualities have done for Wade, who overwhelms opponents with speed and is almost always in attack mode.

Thank you for the extensive fix. I'll go over as much as I can tonight :)
This member has provided no bio about themself...
Thank you for the extensive fix. I'll go over as much as I can tonight :)
Let me guess, advanced geometry? It doesn't sound too bad, especially if you have it laid out before you.
Interesting, I always imagined it as a huge list of coding, where you have to look with a magnifying glass to find things. How else can we explain the enormous bugs left out by developers :)
Out of curiousity, I'm no programmer, but I'm curious as to how these bugs appear. Missing textures, mistakes in placement and such.
And you call yourself a programmer :D :P
Wait, are these bugs caused by the barrier, or something else?
Alright, just say when and I'll make a video. You can use it to advertise all around. And I'll consider what to do with the engine.
Wait, the rusty gears open the room with the Soul orb and the two Cyberdemons, being smashed?
By the way, a thought sprung to mind. How about when you finish everything you have planned for E1, I make a speedrun video, showing off this polished race track? I just need you to tell me how to record such a video, is there a program?
I'm using Zdoom, I tried others, but had massive problems. This "new" barrier stops nothing, but obstructs vision, which is problematic, considering the Hell baron.
Don't worry about taking time, it's worse if they are there, because I have to restart the episode each time.
Hi adamclare, thank you for the fix, I decided to make a whole list of bugs and alike I've noticed:
- Lots of Exclamation marks in starting area of the Hangar and in the newly added room to the left, which mark missing objects
- Minor FPS drop, when entering Nuclear plant
- Please, can you tell me what the blazes the lever with the rusty cogs grinding, does, I repeated this level maybe 10 times and I can't discover it
- The new decorations in both the Hangar and the Nuclear plant look beautifull, no issues
- Leaving the Nuclear plant, on the door to the outside there's a sort of a distortion barrier, but passing through fixes it (there's a similar thing at the begining of E3 in the cave to the right)
- Leaving the Sloughs of Despair, there's a ledge, but since you can jump over it, there's no point in searching for the button that opens the door to the button that lowers it
- E3, right after the invisible barrier you fixed, there are two pillars, right, that come down on you if you step below them, well the pillar on the right is obstructed by a barrier
- A-and another game breaking barrier after the room with the 3 levers and the pillars. I beg of you, take a few days, but scan ahead for any more of these.
Very nice, might I suggest increasing the contrast between the two, otherwise the darkened areas look blank.
Sorry to say it chief, but I have another one. This time an invisible barrier in the House of Pain, middle of the stairs, front of the entrance, bullets pass right through, I can not.
AAnd the good bits. I love what you've done with everything, it's like playing the game anew, even harder, if that was possible, I'm getting mutilated every 2nd minute :D The transition is very good and the piece with the broken portal in E3M1 was really nice.
Vodoo dolls, huh, well I'll be damned :D Thank you for the quick fix.
Hey, I found another big issue. Again I'm not sure if it's because of this mod. However removing any of the others, crashes my save game and I can not verify. At the entrance of Limbo on E3, I find a sort of a mirror image of myself. There are two of them in fact, one at the door to Limbo, the other next to the corridor, leading to the door. I can't get past and if I attack them, I die violently.
Also, thanks for the update, everything looks really fancy and high- tech now :P
Looks a bit mishapen, are those support collumns? Nicely intergrated though.
Hey, great work on the first level of E1. However I have a huge problem with missing textures, firstly in the secret pool with the blue armor and secondly in the starting area of E3. Otherwise there are no problems. I'm not sure whether it's a issue from me...
Oh, hell yes ^^
Forsaken, the undead are under Arthas now
Ah, smart man
However, might I suggest enlarging them a bit. As it is many people might miss them, I believe
Cameras?! If this is what I think it will be awesome to prepare for larger battles. Great work :)
Damn, you're fast. Out of curousity, how long did it take you to finish E1 and E2 sepperately?
No, I apologise I tried and couldn't
Also, first secret after picking up shotgun, reveals a red button, which opens a red door with a map and armor. I don't think that's supposed to happen
Hello again, I have a question: in both E1 and E2 there's a room right at the beginning, rectangular in shape. Both are empty so what is their purpose?
Thank you, yes, I didn't need to use the switch, I suggest looking into the other doors if you have the time, just in case.
Also one more thing, I'm not sure about this, as closing to the portal I was in a state of bloodlust, however I never got the red key, yet I remember pressing a red colored button... Which might also explain the rush.
Hello again. I've got to say the ending to E1 is incredible, your inspiration was Doom 3, right?
However I have a few notes. By the end, before hell, you no longer need to go through the whole complex, you can just rush to the portal, can you do something about that, makes the rest of the level pointless.
The Ettins withing Hell are a great addition, but are too weak, if you can give them more health, maybe similar to Pinky demons'
Intruiging, but also a bit barren, how about a lava lake for instance. Also keep up the awesome work, I'm playing E1 right now and love everything.
I for instance have many options applied and rarely see any problems, an object not working and the stack experience too, but otherwise it's fine.
It's not constant, it happens from time to time and it can ruin a game. Also I've noticed that it doesn't nessessarly kill you, if you have a lot of health and armor, but severly damages you.

The Quest of the Historical Jesus (Google eBook)
Fortress Press, Jan 1, 2001 - Religion - 562 pages
A monument in historical Jesus studies In this revised translation and retrieval of the full text of the revised German edition, Schweitzer describes and critiques eighteenth and nineteenth century attempts at retrieving the "Jesus of history" and stands at the crossroads of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries to bring closure to the former, and to open the latter for New Testament scholarship. Schweitzer saw the problems of historiography, theology, and politics in the ways the issues were formulated - and the answers proposed - and refocused attention on Jesus' "eschatology" in a way abandoned by his predecessors. Issues of the messianic secret, the nature of the kingdom of God, and Jesus' mission are addressed. Because of the new invigorated study of Jesus in his first-century context, informed readers will desire Schweitzer as a reference point for the mistakes of the past and the possibilitites of new directions.

A Tour Around Ace Frehley's Bronx
By Katherine Turman
Celtic crosses round her neck, white stole but no dreads, Sinéad O'Connor explains away her spiritual mix-and-match steez in convincing enough NPR rhetoric: Catholicism is her religion, Rasta is her movement. That "white girl flies to Kingston to do expensive reggae karaoke" bounce she worked at WebsterI would say that's her movement. Still, can't knock this way stellar backup bandSly and Robbie, who produced O'Connor's roots covers album Throw Down Your Arms, performed with her, as did Burning Spear, many of whose songs O'Connor took up that evening. And definitely can't knock O'Connor's scratchy-smooth alto, so powerful she often held the mic two feet from her mug and still outpiped most jokers invited onto Webster's stage. For struggle music, she ain't struggling.
O'Connor's made something of a big deal of how she only does "spiritual" numbers these days. But her reggae cover choices had something else to themthey're some of the genre's most melody driven. That dense, impossibly busy groove of "Marcus Garvey" obeyed her pitch-perfect lead; those horn flourishes on "Y Mas Gan" and its feisty bassline never dared upstage her lullaby delivery. To the question "What does reggae sound like?" maybe now O'Connor's gorgeous a cappella rendition of "Jah Nuh Dead," patois intact, will suffice for an answer, at least as much as the upstroke guitar sound/hand motion most people make when pressed.
Sinead O'Connor (With Sly and Robbie)
Throw Down Your Arms
Rocket Science
Stream "Jah Nah Dead"
Stream "Marcus Garvey" (Windows Media)
So O'Connor privileged melody over meter, reggae per se over what reggae "means." More bluntly, her show was hardly the Damian Marley hotbox of the week before. "If you have a cigarette lighter, get it out!" O'Connor suggested before "Vampire," a Lee Perry cover that defines the "true Rasta man," and among other things, rhymes with "fire"; nobody had one. Though to be fair, when O'Connor snuck the Christian spiritual "Veni Emmanuel" into "Door Peep," some girl in V.I.P. did grab the votive candle off her table and lift it into the air. Gaude, gaude.

We visited in shoulder season, right before most of Jackson closed down for several weeks. Fortunately, this meant we weren't hit with the extra $25/day resort fee - pay attention to that if you are comparing prices, as it's added after the fact and might affect your comparison-shopping. The Front Desk worker was very friendly and welcoming, and was particularly helpful when we discovered we were surrounded by partying yokels who liked to get drunk in their rooms with their doors wide open and switch the room numbers in the hall as a joke -- the Front Desk worker was very kind and understanding and switched our room without hesitation. Location is otherwise quiet, and relatively walkable to downtown (6-10 blocks, depending on your destination). Rooms were comfortable and clean, with unremarkable views. The hotel lobby and pool area are very attractive. Breakfast was not included."
This is a nice hotel. Service was good and room was clean and well maintained. It was a little "fru-fru" for my taste, with a more nostalgic styling (think ruffles on the sofa and stylized wallpaper. A nice place, and the free breakfast was nice. I do recommend they offer plain toast, however. Overall a good value."
We had a wonderful condo that had a great view - the only thing was it was 3 flights of stairs to climb with luggage. The staff helped us with the luggage (poor guy) but we had a fireplace and new updated kitchen - just wish we would have brought some food to cook. We did eat breakfast in our condo. It was FABULOUS! So quiet and private - great toiletries and nice heater! We feel blessed to have been able to stay here!"
Expensive for what it is, but we always know La Quintas will take pets without an extra fee. Didn't have a crib when we called for one, our night was very uncomfortable without one. The hotel was clean and staff were fairly pleasant."
Really nice staff at front desk, rooms very spacious and beds very comfortable, bathroom etc spotless clean, fast wifi, nice selection for breakfast. The one & only fault I had was there seemed to be a smell of "dog" in our room! Not sure if "pet" rooms are kept for people with pets but I'd bet money that whoever was in the room before us, probably had a dog! That said, I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again, just not in the same room!"
I've stayed in hotels all over the world, and while the luxury and amenities of the Baymont Inn can't compare, their staff more than made up for it!"
We have stayed here before every thing is always great!"
The cabin was nice enough although rather dated in amenities. The description promised free WiFi. However, I was unable to connect at any time. The staff was unable to be of assistance."
Everything was very good except the toilet didn't work. We reported it,they brought up a bunch towels but didn't fix it the next day. We were there 2 nights and enjoyed everything else regarding the hotel."
Stayed at hotel several times and will likely return. You do pay more than some of the other hotels, but you get what you pay for. Hotel is newer with friendly and helpful staff. However, this particular stay we found the breakfast to be good the first day, but the second day there was still 45 minutes of serving time left and everything was gone. When inquired if more was coming, the help avoided responding."
Very nice hotel experience. Great breakfast options, plus grabbed a snack bag to go! Comfortable beds! Clean room."
Everything was very nice and comfortable. The staff was friendly and helpful. The breakfast was god, and they didn't let the food run out, something that shouldn't happen anywhere, but seems to happen at most hotels I have stayed in. The one thing I didn't like were their tiny pillows. No reason for that. Give me a full size pillow!!"

Intertwined Entities: Freeman Lau's Book List—A Conversation with Zara ArshadBy Steve Kroeter March 12, 2013
|Freeman Lau
|Zara Arshad
Product and graphic designer Freeman Lau: Kan & Lau Design Consultants (Hong Kong)
Design writer Zara Arshad: Design China (Beijing)
Internationally renowned product and graphic designer Freeman Lau (Lau Siu-Hong), with more than 300 awards to his name, has designed everything from posters and books to prize-winning water bottle packaging and a series of intertwining chairs and stools. He is also recognized for his work as an educator and curator, and in 2011 was a curator of the Beijing International Design Triennial. Lau's book CMYK (2012) was just released in Hong Kong and Beijing this past December. Design China's Zara Arshad, in an interview for Designers & Books, sat down with Freeman Lau recently to talk about reading, writing, designing, and publishing books in Hong Kong and mainland China. (The conversation appears in Chinese at the end of this post.)
Zara Arshad: How have books influenced your design career?
Freeman Lau: Books have impacted greatly on my understanding of Chinese culture and, subsequently, my design work. It was through books that I learned about the interconnected relationship between design and culture.
|Intertwined Chairs from Freeman Lau's "Chairplay" series, 2008
When I was growing up in Hong Kong, books played a vital role in providing a glimpse of what life was like in mainland China. Back then, China was still a closed country and we had no photographs or visual reference points as to what life was like there. It was through publications like the Wuxia novels (traditional Chinese fiction centered on the martial arts) that we imagined the mountains of China, the scenery, and how people dwelled there. It was immensely fascinating for us. The Wuxia novels raised an initial curiosity about Chinese culture, and design as a bridge between culture and creativity, an idea that has influenced me ever since.
The very first design book that influenced me was written by the artist and design educator Wucius Wong. It was a fairly simple publication that had been translated into many languages and discussed the principles of graphic design. It encouraged me to take up the subject (rather than fine art) at the university level and, consequently, initiated my design career.
ZA: You have mentioned that design and culture, for you, are two intertwined subjects. Can you tell us more about how books have shaped this way of thinking?
FL: Another book that influenced me fairly early on in my career was concerned with Chinese paintings. It was written by a teacher who focused on the theory and the principles of design and design thinking, and composed during the Chinese ink painting movement that was taking place in Hong Kong at the time. The book focused heavily on culture and its impact on creative practice. Hong Kong was a very interesting place during this period since many designers were also creating art: paintings and installations. There were no boundaries, and crossing between disciplines was a very natural occurrence. Books like this one sparked a personal interest for me in creating work of a more conceptual nature.
|Tolerant from Freeman Lau's "Fancy of Ink" poster series, 2011
ZA: What are the more notable differences between the publishing industries in Hong Kong and mainland China?
FL: In Hong Kong, English books were more widespread and readily available. Of course, this was not the case in mainland China until very recently. However, I feel that the publishing industry in mainland China is still better developed, though the style is very different. Technology and material choices in China are also improving, enhancing the industry even further. When I visit Beijing, I always try to stay in the Wangfujing area for easier access to the local bookstores, which carry a great selection of books. Even if you browse these stores for a short amount of time, you are able to find great publications (in terms of content). Additionally, the book design industry is losing its market in Hong Kong; however, it still has a fairly strong presence in cities like Beijing, where some of China's most famous book designers, such as Lü Jingren, currently reside. Many in the industry have started to consider related aspects, like Chinese typography and fonts, more seriously now, too.
|Freeman Lau, CMYK, 2012 (China Renmin University Press, Beijing)
ZA: Which books do you recommend to other designers?
FL: My advice to young designers is not to read just design books alone. Although these may be visually stimulating and good points of reference, they do not help much conceptually. Design is a means of expression—it is a way of thinking. Within the design world, we are happy to be creative, but content is also important. Young designers should fall in love with another aspect of society like music, culture, or even ecology, and reflect back on their own lives in order to contribute to world development through their creativity.
ZA: Books have played a huge role in your past. How do you anticipate they will impact your future?
FL: I recently released a new book called CMYK, and hope to publish more in the coming months. Some of these will relate to my work, but I want to reveal in more detail the real impact of culture and heritage on previous projects. I also plan to curate more books in the future. In 2011, for example, I collaborated with Professor Hang Jian (then Vice Dean of the Arts and Design department at Tsinghua University, Beijing) to co-curate an exhibition called "Re-thinking Bamboo," which analyzed the potential of bamboo as a sustainable and culturally significant design material. I want to design a publication that builds on the themes we touched upon in that exhibition. Overall, my plan is to start curating book content that aims to stimulate and provoke design debate on more current problems that have recently started to emerge in Asia.
