1. What he enjoys about working there is the opportunity to engage with a historically-rich archive of ~40,000 objects from the lives of Ray and Charles Eames. It is a good reminder of the optimism that can be produced by integrating critical and humanist thought into design practice.
2. What he enjoyed about working there was the impassioned and unique editorial focus, the sincere dedication to the materiality of books, and the approach to typography as craft.
3. What he enjoyed about working there was the designer-as-editor structure, the unique medium, the massive print circulation, and the dialectic formed between the role as ‘the paper of record’ and the ephemerality produced through an unending daily print schedule.
4. His graduating thesis was a book he edited and designed aiming to engage critically with the landscape of creative education and pedagogy. It contained original writing, original interviews, and reprinted writings from external contributors.
5. Areas of special interest include the materialism of design-as-a-profession, the contemporary validity and historical precedents of ‘radical’ education, and design as an actor within the cultural-academic industrial complex.
