Today, graphics, artwork, and text we view on paper and on screens can be safely assumed to be of digital origin. That’s not implying the absence of human intelligence, but coming from a computer ‘somehow’. Due to CAD, the craftsmanship of making schematics, PCB layouts and wiring diagrams by hand in a truly educative way using a drawing table, masking tape, rubbers and an array of pens, has disappeared entirely. For reasons not entirely nostalgic, I found some of Elektor's works of art worthy of reproducing and describing in this graphics-dominated Retronics instalment. Enjoy the pictures!
