Interns here at Involution Studios are on a kind of odyssey themselves—with only a year or two of college, along with the occasional grad student, they walk into our grand but funky space full of … well, we’re not always sure, but there is usually some level of trepidation. Day 1 might seem oddly quiet with its minimal paperwork, log-ins, and wiki exploration. Day 2 usually brings a real project (or two), maybe something along the lines of an intern’s portfolio plus a client deliverable.

The Fast Company article, ["This Is Generation Flux: Meet The Pioneers of the New (and Chaotic) Frontier of Business"](http://www.fastcompany.com/magazine/162/generation-flux-future-of-business), has an interesting take on this phenomenon, framing the current economic environment as a system caught in the throes of creative destruction, brought on by rapid technological innovation and radical business model changes. A related article, ["The Four Year Career"](http://www.fastcompany.com/magazine/162/average-time-spent-at-job-4-years), examines the imminent demise of the long duration job and the well defined career path.
