Milton Glaser’s SVA: A Legacy of Graphic Design
June 10th, 2011
This clip documents Milton’s most recent show at SVA, which is a 50-year retrospective of nearly 100 works he created for the school. His work is inspiring, and would LOVE to meet this guy and have him look at my work… knowing I would probably be torn apart, it would be so awesome to learn from a man like this. Anyway, pretty kewl stuff.
FYI: This is the guy who designed the I ♥ NY campaign, and designed grocery stores thru-out America.

Philippe Starck: Why Design?
October 10th, 2010
Designer Philippe Starck — with no pretty slides to show — spends 18 minutes reaching for the very roots of the question “Why design?” Listen carefully for one perfect mantra for all of us, genius or not.
Color Theory Diagram
September 9th, 2010
Thought I would share this little ditty. Always was an Ansel Adam’s Zone Theory, and primarily a Black & White system for talking about lightness and darkness in an image. So color for me has always been a bit of mystery. A mystery that always seems to show it’s face when I see how others seem to experience color. Understanding basic theory of how color’s relate is important to me right now, and a fascinating process too. Found this chart, and thought it was informative, as well as a pretty simple design that goes a bit deeper into the relationships.
Interesting Green Promo
September 7th, 2010
An old friend shared me this one on Facebook, and thought it was an interesting piece of “green advertising.” Always been drawn to, and thought provoking design that can actually change the world… and I thought I should say that I am interested in knowing how this would be deemed to work successfully – financially – actively. But definately like this theme and green feel for the whole look and feel – liked it enough to post it here for your review.
