I am truly shocked to not find more thinkpieces on the incredible graphic design and typography of Zohran Mamdani’s campaign but maybe that’s because searching on the internet is garbage now. TL;DR lead designer was Aneesh Bhoopathy of Forge Co-Op Roundup of articles in thread 🧵

Photoshop turned 35 this week and I’m having all the feels because I’ve been using it for all but 5 of those years.

Make art that you think is fuckin sick as hell. Make the shit you never thought you could that you always wanted to see. Beat your insecurity to death and fight to become your own favorite artist.

A WIP typeface I haven’t touched in a while. High contrast, not too calligraphic (for once), with art nouveau flair, weight and width axes. Absolutely begging for optical sizing and an italic.
A specimen of an in-progress typeface, working title “Budapest”. It shows several words in various languages, black on white, all the same width, set to display the letterforms in various styles.A specimen of an in-progress typeface, working title “Budapest”.

I See Borderlings - Support me on Ko-Fi! @iseeborderlings.bsky.social · 16/11/2024
Greetings! I am currently making a 100-page bestiary about beings who coexist with us, which a few can see: 'I See Borderlings'
Agoralogoling,  the Graffiti Borderling. A blue saurian shape resembles a shark in style similar to street art.  It swims through walls and floors, tagging to spread its territory.  Marmoraling,  the Pavement Borderling. It resembles tree roots uprooted due to an intense storm. Many yellow eyes dot its serpentine body. It's a nuisance and won't stop growing, causing foundation damage.Tassadermaling,  the Taxidermy Borderling. Here, it's coming out of its borzoi form it borrowed from an antique shop, showing its true form as a red mass. Cassoscriptumling,  the Written Media Borderling.  It resembles a large heap of paper dripping with ink. Some sheets of paper have functional eyes that move and blink. It messes up text in newspapers and magazines by absorbing and writing on them, causing typos and distorted wording.

A lot of artists who are switching social media and having to start over are probably scared about traction coming to their shops. I know I am! I just ask that we try to support artists who rely on their work for income. Reposts and likes go a long way on a shop opening post.

Four years ago, I posted a big Twitter thread about the specimen books that were produced for Adobe Originals typefaces — beginning in 1989 with Adobe Garamond, Utopia, Trajan, Charlemagne and Lithos. It’s not doing much good there now, so here’s an encore posting for a (new?) Bluesky audience. 1/

One of the best things I ever did for myself was separate out my personal and professional instagrams. Now that Bluesky is getting traction, I figure I may as well park a sister account over here.
