What responsibilities do you believe you have as a creative person?

Developed by design students at East Carolina University, under the guidance of instructor and graphic designer Megan Irwin, this publication explores the manifesto as a form of design inquiry. After engaging with historic and contemporary manifestos, participants wrote their own statements on design, translating these texts into visual compositions.
