A long interview between Petra Cerne Oven and Robin Kinross has just been published in Emzin, (vol. 9, nos. 1–2, 1999). This is a cultural review published in Ljubljana, Slovenia. The conversation concentrates on Kinross’s activities as a writer and publisher. The conversation was conducted in English (of course), and is published here in Slovenian translation. Another conversation covering similar territory, between Kinross and Florian Pumhoesl, was published in the Austrian cultural magazine Springer (vol. 3, no. 4, 1997–8). Both conversations are informal, occasionally unbuttoned, wide-ranging – of a kind that it is hardly possible to publish in the English-speaking design press.
