January is here, and with it comes that gnawing guilt. The resolution to read more and broaden yourself was lost to endless nights watching The Wire on your laptop. It's not too late though. Lengthening sun and some time off work mean an afternoon or two can be dedicated to a book somewhere.

It needn't be a rushed effort to conquer Crime and Punishment. Instead, you could fill your time with something like Things I Have Learned In My Life So Far.

Typographist and designer Stefan Sagmeister takes some of the aphorisms stored in his diary and transposes them in myriad ways onto the world. He wraps forests and arranges junk and makes billboards, and presents the photos in a collection of unbound signatures. It's a fascinating, clever meshing of word and image, and medium and message, and can take up hours of your time.
