You are not from around here, right?

You mean from this town?

No, Earth.

I love this exchange. Half remembered, expletives omitted.

As I write this using a German keyboard layout on a tablet device I do not use half as often as I would like, summer is going out of season.

Here, where I am, that means when it rains, it pours.

I want to reconnect with where we last heard from each other, tell you what I am up to right now, and these last few weeks.

I used a lot of ChatGPT to complete projects which I had on my mind for years, but knew that I would never finish them.

And I am currently working through the gaps in my graphic design education, because Plain Text 1 by Plain Form talked a lot about type design, experimental type design even, and I saw that what I knew, what I was taught, did not cover that at all.*

Shot from Plain Text 1, Type as Labyrinth, by Benjamin Dumond.

Type design? I learned which type to choose to make things look a certain way, read a certain way.

Experiments? There was the one during our first semester where we made our own grids and used that grid to make some letters. Not a whole alphabet, much less than what a typeface covers. And after that?

So reading this zine I understood my need to become a graphic design generalist as much as I can: why should I stop at what I know when there is so much to learn, do, make?

So that is where I am right now: reading pages of that magazine, made by typographic outlaws from France, who talk about asemic writing, about FontLab and Glyphs, about computational type design, and if knowledge is a country, these are the cities I want to visit. I do not want to be a user of software, like an interface worker who pushes assets around a canvas. My apologies if that sounds rough, but I need the distance from my core studies. I need a little punk here.

And what I need is to get that next level of control, so I can reach the next screen, again.

*I had to order the out of print volume 1 from a different store, cahier central, but you are a smart kid, you will find your own source for it

Computational design on the Biorock Pavilion:

Biomimicry has positive impact on planet says architect Michael Pawlyn

Exploration Architecture founder Michael Pawlyn speaks to Dezeen about biomimicry as part of our Design for Life collaboration with Dassault

Excerpt from Dezeen article:

The Biorock Pavilion is a concept for an amphitheatre-like event space that could be grown underwater. The form of the building is based on that of a seashell, as well as mathematical forms.

The basis of the pavilion would be a skeletal structure comprised of a network of very thin steel rods, which would be immersed in a solution of minerals.

It would be grown by electrodeposition of minerals

An electric current would then be run through the steel skeleton, allowing the remainder of the pavilion to be 'grown' as the minerals calcify atop the base structure.

"It takes those minerals out of the seawater and produces a structure similar to reinforced concrete," stated Pawlyn. "This uses an absolute minimum of material to grow a whole building."

Generative art is hot in the NFT space right now... I feel like this is a once in a lifetime opportunity that I would just like to jump on a lot faster and more furiously than I am at the moment... I never thought my niche art interests were a thing I could ever make money off of... and in the tradeoff between financial stability and doing what I love, I was always willing to forego stability... but this is like... when my dad’s super niche graduate research area, which didn’t even have a name when he began, became the hot and happening thing 30 years later (nanotechnology - see a book I’ll never understand, but that I stupidly designed the cover for!)

Generative art is like.. my thing! It’s the only reason I bothered to learn anything about programming, math or whatever... why am I just.. being a snail???? I’m like.. now is a good time to try a figure out sculpting manually from scratch for the first time, yeah... just take some years to build up a super tedious skill so you can sculpt hot men when my niche interests are staring me in the face and I see bunch of platforms that love my old stuff and I’m like... self why... are you so impractical?

I feel like there is a part of me that thinks I need a lifetime of practice before I get good enough to have anything that I want to show... I have never made a work of art that I actually want to show people.. it’s all practice... all a workout for the masterpiece I’ll do when I’m like... 80.. but goodness.. just... do it self.. capitalize on the hype.
