A quick note for completists:

Interview

I had the pleasure of chatting with Alan Houser last week for his CreativeXpert podcast series. It’s a brief interview, but we manage to cram in some discussion about design and a few fun stories from my past. Be sure to check out previous episodes for interviews with talented folks from Adaptive Path, Frog Design, House Industries, Firewheel Design, and many more.

Reading and Drinking

If you will be in or around New York on Monday, July 28th, I suggest swinging by The Delancey at 7pm. Coudal Partners is holding a special Field-Tested Books event with some of the local testers reading their reviews live. Testers include: Michael Bierut, Randy Cohen, Steven Heller, Jason Santa Maria (hey, I know him!), Jeffrey Zeldman, Ben Greenman, John Gruber, Jim and Steve from CP, and many more.

Thanks Jason. It was great to have you on the show! I wish we could’ve talked about your re-design {DURRRRRRRR}. Good times all the same. {thanks too, to fawny.org}

Hey Jason, Very nice interview you got there man. I totally understand what you went trough when you were in college and looked at your buddy’s work. In fact, I experience that to this date. I look at everybody’s work out there(including yours) and just I wish I could do at least 1% of what you do. Unfortunately, I didn’t have a chance to go to college here in USA which it makes me work and learn even harder but sometimes I just feel I can’t do it. Although, I feel that way, something keeps telling me to continue on. Anyways, like I told you in person at the Event Apart Boston, I’m a fan of yours. Thanks for your work, and for the person you’ve been to all of us out there that read your blog. Very nice work! I wish I could do half of what you can do. I don’t know if you believe in God but you’re a blessed man.

I’m really looking forward to the Field-Tested Books Event. It can only prove to be amazing with a list of readers like that.

RE: Delancey Event… that place is small especially if the rooftop isn’t open, but newhos, it’s a nice place to have a drink or two. I’ll definitely have to check this one out.

Great talk over at CreativeXpert podcast series. Thanks, for pointing them out to me. I have now listened all the talks and will try and keep up with the newer ones.

Wishing I could make the Field-Tested Books Event in NYC, but I can’t with having to be at work in DC both Monday and Tuesday. I guess I will just have to read along at home.
