Thanks for lighting a fire under all of us, Brock.

He’s got some cool stuff up on his website, too, like this T-shirt design.

Creativity is cool. Art is fun.

Fifteen “typophiles” from all over the world came together to beautiful Galiano Island (off the coast of Vancouver) to share an amazing week of typographic learning, creating and appreciation. Our three instructors—Dyana, Shelley Gruendler and Tiffany Wardle—were extremely knowledgeable on the subject, and it was clear that their love for typography was beyond mastery level.

Seeing Dyana featured here in FontShop’s FontCast #7 brought back all the wonderful memories I had from Type Camp. As she did then, Dyana talks about her love of kerning in a way that’s educational, approachable and inspirational.

Read more about her interview here.

The printed edition of the report is being letterpressed by Swayspace in Brooklyn, New York. It is 16 pages and printed using 4 colors on 80 lb. French Durotone cover stock, and will be individually numbered, signed and mailed in March. Order yours here.

Each day in 2009, I asked every person with whom I had a meaningful encounter to submit a record of this meeting through an online survey. These reports form the heart of the 2009 Annual Report. From parents to old friends, to people I met for the first time, to my dentist… any time I felt that someone had discerned enough of my personality and activities, they were given a card with a URL and unique number to record their experience.

Some clever folks have whipped up a batch of the pop icon in her most memorable and delicious outfits. Eat your heart out Lady Gaga! (someone will)

Below are my faves. See the rest and the outfits they were based on here.
