Sub/Conscious Meanderings

Now the my BFA is finally fin­ished, I have free time to fill. Luck­ily I’m good at that. In fact, I already have a cou­ple projects I’ve added:

1. I’m a con­trib­u­tor to a new blog called ‘the syl­labus’
We’ve just started get­ting con­tent together so we have a good launch. It’s focused on graphic design stu­dents and young graphic design pro­fes­sion­als, their unique con­cerns and things that will ease the tran­si­tion between school and work. I’ll be the con­tribut­ing typog­ra­phy expert (what­ever that means) with a weekly blog and more infre­quent arti­cles. I’m rather excited about it.

2. I’ve started a new type­face. Granted, it’s still in the incu­ba­tion stages, but I feel like I have a solid design brief/concept that fills an area that seems to be need­ing filled within the realm of type design.

3. I’ve also been toss­ing around another idea for writ­ing, mostly just a fun way for me to jour­nal and incu­bate ideas. It’ll be called Gray­Mat­ters. I’m so clever. I’m hop­ing that I’ll be able to get some funds to pub­lish every year. I think after I incor­po­rate Type­caste at the begin­ning of the year, I might use it as the basis for my annual report. Who knows?

One lit­tle caveat on #2. Austin made me promise that I’d take at least a month off before start­ing another type­face so there prob­a­bly won’t be any updates dur­ing the next month.
