The Meaning Underground<br />
Various<br />
The Meaning Underground is a publication featuring a selection of<br />
the best copywriting projects produced from 2006 to 2008. In order<br />
to illustrate in detail the nuances of copywriting, the book has been<br />
arranged in 9 sections, interconnected like underground stations. As<br />
it is very difficult to limit a message to a single category on the basis<br />
of a single concept, this book will feature a general classification of<br />
concepts devised as a transport network, whose underground stations<br />
are the nodes which make up the net. As in all the main Undergrounds,<br />
the categories have different names and colours. Words, like trains,<br />
are alive, mobile, curious, influenced and influential. Leafing through<br />
the book will be like a trip: at any time you can decide whether to skip<br />
from one station to another or discover random routes, which even<br />
though still following a linear scheme, allow you to explore individual<br />
landmarks and make comparisons between them.
