he's a collage artist, not hot anymore. he is terrible at turning up to seminars and lectures. he thinks he's a rock star.

opened up the use of typography, he will be written about in texts as a influential designer and someone who was responsible for a movement.

I say: there is something about its graphics, which I found interesting, intriguing even, but it doesn´t communicate, at least on a level accessible to everyone. His ilegible typography, I would insist that its more like art rather than functional type. Oh well, almost as if you wouldn´t be able to seat in a chair designed by him, if he was a furniture designer.

it's not hot now obviously but 10 years ago, damn it was hot. extremely inspirational at his height.

I still admire his desconstruction of type as an image pioneer process - i still have many of the redesigned surf mags and raygun issues. His books are not that impressive. the design community owes him a good "how's your father"
