I’m experimenting with the idea of “.5” Episodes (8.5, 10.5 etc…). A “.5” episode will be lighter and primarily concerned with what’s happening around the studio. These episodes will be much shorter and more VLOG style. It’s an experiment to try to tune the channel. Episode 10.5 is now live, it’s concerned with the Leelanau Peninsula, mowing the lawn and snow.

Why Your Avant-garde Typography Doesn’t Look and isn’t “Avant-garde.” How to Begin To Fix It | #116

Many graphic designers are interested in exploring ways of making work that fall outside of contemporary corporate aesthetics. An “experimental” and “maximalist” approach to graphic design usually involves aggressive typography. Unfortunately most graphic designers still think that hampering typographic legibility is the key to making “experimental” work. Designers interested in creating work that falls outside of accepted corporate aesthetics often make spurious typographic decisions in pursuit of anticorporate, anticapitalist and experimental graphic design. Frankly, in MOST instances the result of this process is not avant-garde work that challenges existing paradigms, but is simply bad (objectively bad) typography. There are different forms of typographic legibility. Compositional illegibility is different than structural illegibility. Most graphic designers who push their work into the “experimental” rely on compositional illegibility rather than structural illegibility. This is one of the primary reasons work of this type lapses into the category of “just bad.”

Clan Wars! Artificial Intelligence Worst Case Scenario. Truckers VS Knowledge Workers | Episode 131
Welcome to the most epic battle of the year: Clan Wars! In this thrilling event, we’ll be witnessing the worst-case scenario of artificial intelligence pitting Truckers against Designers. Get ready for an adrenaline-packed ride that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
In this video, we’ll be exploring the potential impact of artificial intelligence on two of the most prominent industries in the world: Trucking and Design. You’ll witness how AI could change the face of these industries and even lead to a battle between them. We’ll be exploring both sides of the story and presenting the worst-case scenario.
Artificial intelligence has come a long way in recent years, and it’s starting to make its presence known in a variety of industries. Trucking and Design are no exception. In Trucking, AI has the potential to revolutionize the way goods are transported, making it faster, cheaper, and safer. However, this could also lead to massive job losses, leaving thousands of truckers out of work.
On the other hand, AI in Design could lead to a new era of creativity, enabling designers to create incredible designs that were previously impossible. However, it could also lead to a reduction in the need for human designers, potentially leaving them without jobs.
So, what happens when these two industries collide? That’s where Clan Wars comes in. In this battle, we’ll witness how AI could be used to pit Truckers against Designers, with each side fighting for their survival. It’s a worst-case scenario that could become a reality if we’re not careful.
But it’s not all doom and gloom. In this video, we’ll also be exploring potential solutions to the problems posed by AI in these industries. We’ll be looking at how we can use AI to create new jobs and help people reskill to work in new areas. We’ll also be exploring how we can use AI to create more environmentally-friendly transportation and designs.
So, sit back, relax, and get ready for the ride of your life. Clan Wars is about to begin, and you won’t want to miss it.
In this video, you’ll learn:
How AI could revolutionize the Trucking industry and what that means for truckers
How AI could revolutionize the Design industry and what that means for designers
The worst-case scenario of AI pitting Truckers against Designers in a battle for survival
Potential solutions to the problems posed by AI in these industries
How AI can be used to create new jobs and help people reskill
How AI can be used to create more environmentally-friendly transportation and designs
The impact of artificial intelligence on the Trucking industry:
AI has the potential to revolutionize the Trucking industry, making it faster, cheaper, and safer. Self-driving trucks are already in development, and they could change the face of the industry forever. These trucks would be able to operate around the clock, making it possible to transport goods more quickly and efficiently. They would also be safer, as they wouldn’t require a human driver who could potentially make mistakes.
However, the downside of this technology is that it could lead to massive job losses in the Trucking industry. Truckers who have spent their entire careers driving trucks could find themselves out of work if self-driving trucks become the norm. This could have a devastating impact on families and communities that rely on the Trucking industry for their livelihoods.
The impact of artificial intelligence on the Design industry:
AI is also starting to make its presence known in the Design industry. With AI-powered design tools, designers can create incredible designs that were previously impossible. For example, AI can be used to create designs that take into account environmental factors such as wind and sun exposure. This could lead to more sustainable designs that are better for the planetThe Design industry is another industry that is likely to be impacted by artificial intelligence. AI-powered design tools can create incredible designs that were previously impossible. For example, AI can be used to create designs that take into account environmental factors such as wind and sun exposure. This could lead to more sustainable designs that are better for the planet.
However, the use of AI in design could also lead to a reduction in the need for human designers. AI can analyze data and make design decisions in a fraction of the time it would take a human designer. This could lead to job losses in the industry.
