The economics of collaboration and geography - illustrated!

For this special membership drive edition of Words and Pictures, we welcome the international writing and illustrating team behind the comics-oriented guidebook Clusters and Your Economy, which examines collaborative communities from Renaissance Florence to California's Silicon Valley to find out why cultural and technological breakthroughs are influenced by something as simple as geography - even in the age of the internet.
 
Our guests are economist Joe Cortright and local comics artists Mike Russell and Adrian Wallace.  If you'd like to hear an extended web-only version of the conversation, you can find the audio at this link.

Copies of the book Clusters and Your Economy are available for a pledge of support to KBOO.  Call (877) 500-KBOO to find out about membership options.
