Most of you have probably already heard or read about Apple Silicon - some of you have maybe even invested in one of the new M1 macs available. I mention the Apple Silicon in this 'Sunday AM' because Apple and the ARM platform may change many things also in the printing industry. Processing speed is so important in everything, and every time processers have taken quantum leaps ahead, it opens up new products and services. Since the M1 isn't available as an OEM product, it will not be something you see in the equipment you may invest in. Still, the Macs will be used more and more for heaving processing needs in applications you use, such as imposition, planning, rendering, data processing, and more. So keep an eye open. I am a Mac user, and the M1 notebook I have is the fastest Mac I have ever had. The $999 Macbook Air is faster than my $5,000 iMac - and at one point annoying; on the other side, it makes me happy that Moore's law still is in effect. With faster and faster processors, we will see software solutions that today are only available in hardware. That will open for faster development, faster updates, and way more competition to your benefit.
This week's music is truly international. The UK-based musicians Above and Beyond have worked numerous times with the amazing singer Zoë Johnston, and this time the remix is done by Alpha9 or Ary - as the Russian DJ and producer are known. I started playing piano when I was five years old and invested in my first synthesizer when I was thirteen. I have always been fascinated by electronic instruments' sound and how computers can be SO creative working with. I hope you like this song.
I haven't had time to read any new books since last Sunday, but I want to share something with you regardless. I have always wanted to write books - and it's kind of strange that I haven't been able to. I write letters, articles, ideas, all the time - and I have even two almost finished books on my computer that I wrote a couple of years ago—one about web-to-print and one about pricing. I would love to finish these, but maybe I am afraid that nobody would buy them, like them, or maybe I have that pressure on myself. Since I started INKISH also done a few presentations at various events, and I am pretty good at it, in my mind - but I never get invites to speak at international events, so maybe writing a book could establish me as an authority? Who knows? I know many people who have written books, and I have even read some of them - and when reading books, it gives such great insight, since you can read, consume, and interpret at your own speed. I will finish the book about pricing soon - I have to. And if you know of any interested in me giving a speech - feel free to reach out - I am, after all, editor of INKISH :-)
