WEEK 1 B

SHARE AND DISCUSS

in class:
group share and discussion of the items you collected. pin things up, organize, categorize. what do we see? how do we feel? what are the criteria for organizing?

homework: from this huge pool of information, think about large areas of typographic practice you’re interested in, or things designers should be paying attention to. do more research on those things, perhaps getting a bit more specific or in-depth than before. bring in more stuff. look at key designers engaged in this kind of work and find tons of examples. bring that in too.

BIL'AK + TRIGGS RESPONSES
what did you think of these readings? does their definition of "experimental" match what you previously thought of the term? is it really useful to experiment if it doesn't have real application?
