“The heart of the 20th century myth is the knowledge that each science, each activity is a part of all others” Edward Wright, 1960. This quote stood out to me in relation to the cross disciplinary set up of ‘This is Tomorrow’ and the various groundbreaking topics that it explored.

There is also a really interesting recollection by designer Trilokesh Mukherjee (who later worked for Ken Garland) about the lengths he had to go through to even get an interview for a place on Edward Wrights graphic design course at Chelsea School of Art in 1963:

“After going through a test for life-drawing, two tests for the History of Art (three hour written, and an hour of slide-test) and a day-long test for graphic design, I was called for the interview.”
