Graham Roumieu has been teaching a course at The Ontario College of Art and Design called New Directions in Pictorial Design about the relationship between hand-rendered type and hand-rendered illustrative images. The result of the course is Paper Beats Internet. Graham says:

The students are going to be providing content for a website mimicking a social network a la Twitter, Facebook and the like. The catch is that aside from the content being viewed on a computer screen, the content itself will be primarily created by hand, making it perhaps the world’s first analog social networking site.

The piece above is by Andrew Horne. And speaking of Graham Roumieu, it looks as if Bigfoot is on Twitter.
