I watched Khoi Vinh’s presentation he made to the National Design Conference. I believe that Khoi’s presentation was a great example of how print design is different than digital media. He makes a great point about how print media is comparable to a speech where digital media is similar to a conversation. With print media, there is not interaction between the piece and the user. It is one way communication. The user is controlled with what he or she can do with the information on the printed piece. Whereas with digital media, the user is allowed to interact with the piece and navigate in order to work through it to find what they are looking for. It is more of a two way communication between the designer and the user.
