Funny Phrases In Spanish

APA APA editorial appeared in the Festivalet. Mystery revealed


is much talk últimanente about the disappearance of the book as we know, others are unable to imagine life without turning pages and enjoy the aroma of a text "brand new". Just love the plunge and go with the feelings, and a deep knowledge of the subject, made Joan Antoni Mascaro, Fani Manresa y Gabriela Miciulevicius create their own publishing house to enjoy what they really like: the COMISCA.

feel the rustle of leaves, fill you with words, images and especially with the heartbreaking story is a luxury to reach all who attend Festivalet . APAAP

is the name of your editorial. What is your philosophy? APAAP

is a small comic book publisher in Barcelona. We have been working more or less about two years during which we have published a dozen titles. The idea from the beginning has been to give unpublished authors known in Spain in our country but is widely recognized in the middle and junior researchers. At first we focus on authors of the "underground" U.S.: James Kochalka, John Porcellino, Dash Shaw. Little by little, we also incorporate some national authors as Philip Almond and Sergi Puyol.

"You work from Barcelona, \u200b\u200bwhere very soon you will exhibit at the Festivalet . What is the city that designers, editors, writers, creative are there, is it a source of inspiration?

is true that Barcelona is a major hub in terms of cultural and creative production. In our case, the truth is that it is a coincidence.

- Why did you decide to dedicate to the world of comics?

decided to enter the world of comics because it's something that appeals to us as readers. Two of the people that make up the editorial work in a bookstore and the fact of having a lot of material import, unprecedented in Castilian was the impetus for us to launch the project. The truth is that was a somewhat "kamikaze." Did not really know what we were facing, but we went and we also learn on the fly.

"How is your creative process, how come the stories or the writers seek, your editorial, how you work ... Basically we

much internet. Evaluated among the three materials we received and based on our tastes, we decided. As we explained you before, the bulk of the catalog consists of authors of the American underground (Kochakla, Porcellino, Zac Sally, Sammy Harkham) and novice (Dash Shaw, Liz Prince). A few months ago we launched a mini collection (Clip-Clip) that is intended to make known authors here. At the moment we only have two: Elisa Smile and Sergi Puyol. And recently, we published a comic Felipe Almendros, who is an author here in Barcelona.

- What you want to become APAAP What are your goals?

The truth is that after two years we are very pleased with the reception given to Apa-Apa in publishing. To some extent the effort to do so that everything goes ahead is enormous, as we all we have another job which is what feeds us and do the editorial work in our spare time. We were treated very well from the beginning, both readers and the press, have encouraged us to follow. Perhaps this recognition "verbal" is not reflected on the numbers, but we hope that eventually we can build the project and, perhaps, to devote to it fulltime.

-Finally, what advice would you give to those people interested in leading cultira in the publishing world that moves between the abyss of paper or digital.

Advice? Well, it is difficult to give advice in that regard. Personally, we're pretty fetish in that the book is about and especially if it's a comic. I can not imagine, for example, a book by Chris Ware in digital. But surely, in the future, one thing and another co-exist.

Thank you, here's a reader more!

George Wash Bridge Toll

interview and track on amazing events I

Re-open this blog after months in which we are immersed in the print edition of We love crafts. Step by step, we will keep you informed.

coming back and do the best, with an interview with the "crafters" that make Dumbo, a couple who are presented as if they had done in the 1,2,3, entrepreneur, initiator of first group in Barcelona Etsy, which has much to tell about his passion: the world "Handmade", and are an example of how fingers touching the fruit of freedom to do what you like.

Also, look at this interview a track, something will happen soon but we can not reveal yet ...


- Who am I? We

Deborah (28) and Arieh (31) , we are engaged and living in Barcelona. We like old things, good movies, good music, good books, cats soft, sunny beaches, the cabins in the forest and hot dogs. We like movies of Dario Argento, David Lynch, Wong Kar Wai and Quentin Tarantino, we are moved to Nacho Vegas, Max Richter and Leonard Cohen, and before bed we read ee cummings or Patricia Highsmith. Of course these are only shared in reality are very different.


"You work from Barcelona, \u200b\u200bwhere an event will occur soon I simply special you give us a clue. Besides, what has this city's most creative designers are there, Is it a influent of inspiration? Barcelona

we like and dislike in equal measure. What we really want is to live in the countryside and near the sea, lost everything and everyone, with a very large and bright studio, surrounded by animals, wildflowers, fruit trees and singing birds give us good morning. With a film in the original and Amazon delivery in a nearby town and ADSL at home, because in reality, inspiration is found on the Internet: all that is outside is inside. But then again, being on the tour we purchase materials, meet people related to what we like (and thanks to Dumbo are getting more and more new friends we met along the way), to participate in events, go to exhibitions and grow a little community " handmade ('ve created the Etsy team Barcelona, \u200b\u200bwhich grows more and more and is a way to make visible a culture of "craft", uniting with common goals).

on the event, just say that we will be surrounded by the crème de la crème of handmade Barcelona (or so it seems to us to us.) Nothing massive, in a welcoming and dates. It has very good paints and we are thrilled to introduce our new things there.

- Why did you decide to be designers?

never say of ourselves that we are designers, the truth is that we have studied film and do not feel or "designers" or "artists" or anything. In fact do not even know to draw well. We were just tired of our work and the kind of life that mark us and the lack of goals we imposed. Start with Dumbo was a response to a need, to spend our time doing things we like, creating and giving concrete form to our ideas. We have many claims, try to do things nice and look for feedback on the other side.

"How is your creative process, what materials you use, what inspires you, how you work ...

Going a bit half, we're handing out tasks as leave or depending on who you want to do what. One thinks of something, the other draws, the other short papers, the other the varnish, the other doubles (this is always Ari, who is the master in origami), one prepares the workspace, the other clean, one added and one removed. And finally get something we like them both and it's never just one job. We do screen printing, origami, sew, desc, drawing, cutting, put chains, mold, bound, print, think and rethink. Whatever. We are very curious and like to try everything. If it were up to us, we would be doing all day courses this and that, if we had to choose one phrase to define it would surely be "knowledge does not take place."


- What you want to become Dumbo What are your goals?

Although not our main occupation, we want Dumbo always be there to be doing what we want, as a tool to unleash our creative needs. We take very serious about fashion, we will not do even two or four collections a year, not going with the seasons and if anything happens we are not simply because we do nothing. Obviously we are not rich with this, but it will always be an escape route and a declaration of intent of how we relate to the world. We believe in the handmade and we do things with your hands makes you feel better and better. We believe in creativity.


-Finally, what advice would you give to those people interested in hand made it want to pursue it as a business.

Surely we are not the best example, but our only advice is to be themselves. Do not listen or their friends or relatives. They are released. Do what they feel they have to do what comes from within, to practice as often as needed, to enjoy their time with their creativity. That relate to like-minded people, to open a blog, make new friends "crafters" and share with them techniques, problems and solutions. And then, if you sell what you do, the better. And if not sold, to see what they can improve but do not lose hope. We believe that money on something like this, is secondary . Very minor.

Thanks, guys!
