Some classic designs from the late Kenneth Grange (d. 2024) feature in the form of his Instamatic camera from Jon Legge and the Kenwood Chef from Alice Naylor. These are objects with enduring appeal, and throughout this issue we see a wistful appreciation for the analogue and pre-digital, underlining the lasting impact of great twentieth century design grounded in modernist principles. This is particularly apparent in the telephone technology discussed by Richard Fryer, the prized cassette tapes from Sarah Feeney, as well as the tactile pleasure of technical drawing pens from Peter Reid.
I need to copy over some pieces from Orbital Operations on the current cycle of push to analogue.
