YEAH! Just nailed a couple more wicked speakers for the Do Lectures. Victory dance.
Found some rather special stationary in NYC. Mostly from the Greenwich Letterpress shop in the West Village. That shop is card GOLD. That little tash supporting guy at the back is my fave.
Another golden nugget from NYC. His work is SO flippin good. Woodblock printing rules. So does Japan.
Do you like posters? Of course you do.
A few weeks ago, my pals over at the Do Lectures asked me to design a poster for them in the spirit of the conference, which I had the pleasure of speaking and attending back in September. Do is a magical place: a conference about assessing and building, changing and making, all wrapped up in the majesty of the woods of Wales. You sleep in tents, you huddle around campfires, you see your breath at night. You think deep thoughts, you find quiet on a walk through their forest, and then drop back into the rousing bustle of pub-side conversation.
And as you’re there hearing thoughts that either change how you think about everything or frame up so nicely what you’ve always felt but never had the words to explain, you begin to realize two things: one, there is so much optimism to be found in the good company of others, and two, there is so much work to be done to fix the broken things and imagine and make wonderful new things.
So, anyway, I made a poster, and I’m not sure if it captures all of that, or even if these words do that, but it’s wonderful to have a small relic that points to the auspicious wonder at the soul of making, isn’t it?
