[Sigia-l] Design and Religion

[Eric Reiss]

Don't know that this helps much, but I knew a Danish art director who
worked for a big agency in Thailand for three years. A Buddhist
priest regularly blessed their layouts and there was a major prayer
session each morning. 

As I recall, the priests actually had some say in the way a project
developed. Perhaps someone else on the list can fill in the gaps in
this narrative, which is second-hand.

Cheers,
Eric
