Nice troy on this dog,
Toledo!,
if you like swearing…,
god the flex fit era, look at that,
who else is hot?,
I was thinking about this email,
he’s licking his hands too much.

We aren't designers who have traveled too far in the traditional in typography. While I don't really know any fonts by name, working over the last few years led me discover a few typographers whose work I enjoy. One is Marc Roualt, based in Paris. A couple years ago redesigned the Formula One racing typography. The other is Jan Tschichold - German type mogul from last century.
German speakers say "Fingerspitzengefühl" (literally, finger-tip-feeling).
Working on design for a client we ended up designing the first four letters, W, H, I, and M of our first font.
Here's the first file -- NO NUMBERS. Please forgive some crooked edges.

Winter is taking its last grasp and if you need a bit of distraction from what is going on in the world, I put together a few items. Typically this time of year is a good time to buy clothing, as winter stuff goes on sale - you might expect that some of those sales look extra tasty with additional promo codes that are easy to find these days. Below are some of the selections:
Unearthed images from archival folders on my computer. As I am in the process of a massive dropbox consolidation I figured that I would share…

Youtube might be the long-term frontrunner in the future of music. They have "it all" when it comes to library breadth, etc. -- lately been spinning youtube mixes, or whatevr they call them, where you are listening to a song and in the top right click to listen to a playlist of 50 songs related to the one you're listening to. Music goes silent as it reloads the page for a split second, then you're into the 50 song mix burnt by the machine herself. These mixes hit harder than a radio on Apple Music or Spotify, to me, because i can start with more obscure things.
Youtube is sick outside of music and in music, too. Lyor Cohen talks about running Youtube and his whole career in an interview with The Breakfast Club, worth a listen for an inspiring self-start career reference and a wide perspective on the music industry. It's a few years old but seeing as we haven't posted in 3 years it's still current for THE DIET. I just dropped 10 bands and got a Youtube Premium account for the gang so no more MasterClass ads.
