Forget bookworms -- graphic designers are the real victims of e-publishing. According to conference host Bryn Mooth, new gadgets like the Kindle and iPad pose a big question to these ink-and-paper pioneers: "How does this emerging platform of reading and interacting in a digital space change what it means to be a book designer?" To help answer that, the Denver conference -- the largest graphic-design gathering in the U.S. -- is going interactive itself: e-book-designing workshops, digital portfolio critiques, and a DIY crafts lounge. "It's like being 8 years old with a coloring book all over again," Mooth says. Better make that an iColoringBook. -- LC
