    Yeah exactly Joshua Davis.

    What has happened here with your emotional reaction, and everyone elses, is that youv'e taken it out of context of the original CR article. Which was quite funny and you were only mentioned in two sentences and it was one man's experience of a typographic show.

    I can quite see why he said your stuff looks like a desktop screensaver and is "stale". Cos it is a bit dated, and there is a thing as being dated otherwise we'd still all be into pop art and surrealism, but we're not cos we move on.

    Thats not to not give you fair doos. Cos like when i saw your stuff and Yugop's stuff back in the day, i went out and bought Friends of ED Flash 5 Foundation and taught me sen action script and was well nerd into it (i've since reinvented myself as a cage fighter and have no business here).

    And you know, you're a successful dude and trend whore marketeers pay you dolla dolla bills to design things, and well done!

    But the dude went to a typo conference to be enlightened with typo stuff and all he got was you with stuff that looks like desktop screensavers, it's not even that clever really. So i guess he said it was rubbish in a funny way.

    • We've moved on from Pop Art? Have we? Did I not get the memo?Horp

    • Pop Art was not a moment Khurram, Pop Art is a thread weaving through popular culture. Its not in the same campHorp
    • camp as time defined artistic moments.Horp

    • But you know what i meant. The hay-days in the 50s/60s. Same with impressionism, abstract minimalism etc...Khurram
    • It's more conceptual now, though you can clearly weave a thread going back to the beginning, that's trueKhurram
