Process & Iterations: Hi-Speed Soul
February 28, 2009
Created in the Spring of 2007, this piece was designed as a sort of calligram, using the song "Hi-Speed Soul" by Nada Surf as text.

Since I made this a couple of years ago, I don't have a lot of details to recount regarding the process. What I can say, however, is that this small portion of the song always struck me very strongly as an interesting way to say "things are not right". I don't know if anyone else listening to the song has ever been affected so strongly by the lyrics "they're playing the song at the wrong speed", but I thought it would be a great line to focus on.

Lettering & Calligraphy workshop
February 13, 2009
This past week, we had an assistant professor of graphic design from New York come to our school to join a couple of critiques and lead a short lettering and calligraphy workshop. I made this quick (except all the time adding little swoopies...) poster to spread the word around the art department. (I didn't realize it until my roommate pointed it out, but I think I might have had a little subconscious influence from Marian Bantjes' work, as she has a show in our gallery this month and did a wonderful presentation for us.)
