    · Did I Do That?: Making Graphic Design & Mistakes

    Tell the rowdy boys to get ready, ‘cause we’re busting out the spray mount and the museum board to present a brand new episode of Did I Do That?! Melissa Delzio (freelance designer and founder of Portland Design History) to talk about the dangers of MTV Spring Break, robocalls, and the peacemaker.

    You can find Melissa all over the internet, starting at her website meldel.com! That’s where her annual reports live—they’re both lovely and a great way to see what it’s actually like to make a living as a freelancer. Melissa can be found on Instagram @meldelpdx.

    Melissa’s long-running project Portland Design History can be found at portlanddesignhistory.com. There are tons of great collections on the site, including some relating to what we talked about in the episode. Check it out, or give the project a follow on Instagram @portlandesignhistory.

    Tales from the Making Mistakes Confessional, Volume II

    · Did I Do That?: Making Graphic Design & Mistakes

    The Simpsons switches formats to horror anthology series this time of year, so shall Did I Do That?—we’ve got a collection of some of the scariest design disasters, missteps, failures, and goofs that have haunted designers this past summer at Future Fonts & Friends 2024!

    How can our anonymous designer ghosts find peace when haunted by a trifecta of specters in the form of opening up your letters’ chakras, gingerbread power moves, and the challenges of Lidz franchising. Listen
 IF YOU DARE!

    WANT A DESIGN CONFESSIONAL AT YOUR EVENT?

    If you have a live event and want me to set up another design confessional for it, either in Portland or beyond, let’s talk! I’d love to do more events like this in the future.

    SPECIAL THANKS

    The confessions used in this episode were collected as part of “Future Fonts and Friends,” a party held for TypeCon 2024 at Outlet in Portland, Oregon, on Thursday, July 25, 2024. All guests were cloaked in the shadow of anonymity—the scariest thing of all in our personal brand building world! Take that, social media! Thank you to all who came out and participated!

    Huge thanks again to Lizy Gershenzhon and Travis Kochel of Future Fonts for inviting me to be a part of the event, to the organizers of TypeCon for putting up with me, and (once again) to MVP Orion Cortez for building the confessional booths way back in 2023 based solely on two terrible sketches I made, then coming back out in 2024 to help me set them up again.

    Additional thanks to past guest Kate Bingaman-Burt of Outlet for her eternal support of / patience with me just in general, but especially the white-hot ball of stress that is me when faced with a live event.

    This episode features a parody of Billie Eilish’s new song “BIRDS OF A FEATHER” and a parody of the character the Crypt Keeper, brought to death by John Kassir.

    #1: Season 5 is coming on Thursday, September 5! Now is a great time to get subscribed and ready—we've got a killer roster already lined up and you won't want to miss it!

    #2: If you weren't able to get out to our Seattle live show as part of Seattle Design Festival, not to worry! SDF has published a video of the whole show to their YouTube channel that you can watch, either on its own or paired with the other SDF Day 1 Mainstage presentations. It was so wonderful to get to connect with Seattle's design community and to share a stage with the great Terry Marks! Big thanks to the entire team at SDF for making the show happen!

    #3: There is still more summer news yet to be revealed, and as soon as I can do it, I plan to publish the announcement to the folks who read our newsletter first, so if you're not already signed up, what are you waiting for? Christmas? That's a long time away and you will know what the announcement is well in advance of December 25, unless you are very, very inattentive. Don't wait—subscribe to the newsletter and let it be your Christmas miracle!

    This week in the feed as our final rerun of summer: those tossed salads and scrambled eggs must have been calling again back at the midpoint of season 2, because Did I Do That? was in Seattle for the AIGA Design Conference 2022! Lee-Sean Huang (Creative Director of Foossa and Director of Design Content & Learning at AIGA) joins Sean to talk dialup conspiracies, leveraging the combined might of the Center for Academic Precocity and the Cronkite School of Journalism to make a reality show, and what business people think about.

    You can find more about Lee-Sean at his website, leesean.net, or follow him nearly anywhere social by searching for the handle @leesean. You can learn more about Foossa’s work in service design, futurecasting, and more at foossa.com. You can find the Lee-Sean's podcasting work with the AIGA on their site, or by searching for "AIGA Design Podcast" wherever you prefer your pod-based experiences are found; AIGA recently has been expanding their podcast and exploring the theme of "Margins" and it's been really great to listen to—go check it out!

    · Did I Do That?: Making Graphic Design & Mistakes

    Summertime fun-time rerun-time continues, but before it does, some big news: I'm doing a live Did I Do That? in Seattle for Seattle Design Festival on Saturday, August 17, 2024 at 4:15pm in Lake Union Park! I'll be joined on stage by the incredible Terry Marks!

    Terry Marks is an award-winning designer with laurels from the likes of HOW, Print, Communication Arts, Neenah, Potlatch and more. He had judged a number of national and local design competitions and is a published author, twice for Rockport Publishers and yet his favorite might be Mr. Crumbly Dreams a Tiger for O’Neil Printing + Rule29. Terry is a champion of collaboration, fan of the kind and good, Fellow of AIGA Seattle, and veteran of the Executive Board of the AIGA National Board of Directors.

    I hope you can make it out to the live show—it's going to be really special to bring this silly podcast to the SDF mainstage and bring it to friends new and old out in Seattle!

    This week in the feed, though: To close out 2022, we called in The Fixer! “Logotype surgeon” and type designer Dan Rhatigan (Director of Type Products at Type Network) sits down with Sean to talk about failing successfully, gifts from fast food heaven, and not quite getting to act with Gwyneth Paltrow in a high school musical.

    You can find Dan’s work all over the internet—his blog is at ultrasparky.org, and he can be found @ultrasparky on Twitter and @bijoutype on Instagram. Speaking of the latter, his foundry Bijou Type (bijoutype.com) should be up an d running soon with an update of Dan’s beautiful graduate school typeface project you can add to your own type collection. His fantastic Pink Mince zine series can be found and purchased at pinkmince.com and @pinkmince on Twitter.

    This episode was recorded Tuesday, December 20, 2022 in Portland, Oregon and originally published right at the start of 2023. Were we ever so young?

    · Did I Do That?: Making Graphic Design & Mistakes

    Rerun summer continues with another past guest from way back in 2022—lettering designer extraordinaire and Portland flower fan Kyle Letendre joins Sean to talk Minnesota’s missing lakes, misguided entrepreneurial spirit, and rebrands that aren’t quite making the grade. We’re filling in the pixels in that JPEG manually in person while we get to the bottom of a question that’s been on everyone’s mind: what’s Sean’s favorite food color?

    Kyle most recently did artwork for TypeCon 2024's identity, which you can see on the TypeCon website.

    Not-so-coincidentally enough, the day this episode is re-released (Thursday, July 25, 2024) Fontroversy's Lena Hall and I will be appearing at TypeCon's Education Forum to present about the type education side of how Fontroversy came to be—it's going to be a real kick, and if you're going to be attending TypeCon, check out the EdForum schedule page on TypeCon's website for scheduling information. Stay tuned to the newsletter, too, Fontroversy friends, for more news on the show coming later this summer!

    Also the night this episode comes out, I'll be at Future Fonts & Friends holding our second ever Making Mistakes Confessional! That event is free, open to the public, packed with friends of the show, and is your chance to share any design foibles that have been haunting you with our design therapist-in-residence. Future Fonts & Friends is happening at Outlet (2500 NE Sandy Blvd. in Portland) from 6–9pm. Hope to hear you there!

    Stay tuned for more event news, including more information about our Seattle show, in the newsletter!

    This episode’s cold open included clips from our episodes with Kristin Rogers Brown and Emily Tate; you can hear the full conversations, which are chock full of more mascot chat, in our back catalog. That segment also featured the song “Action Strike,” written and performed by Rafael Krux and distributed under a CC0 license.

    This episode was recorded Saturday, April 27, 2024 in the Rat’s Nest, which I am beginning to think is less an office and more a locus at which the earth’s EM radiation is focused to a fine and impossible-to-filter point. Thanks, 1920s architects and 1950s electricians, for your fine work on this monument to buzzing. I only hope not too much of it made it to air, but if you can hear it, I apologize—I did my best!

    Are you an academic in art, design, or a closely related field? Do you currently hold a tenured rank (associate or full professor?) at a four year university? I NEED YOU! I am beginning the process of applying for tenure this month, which requires me to form a committee of outside evaluators of my materials and offer recommendations to the university about my promotion and tenure. If you already know about this show and understand my work, you’d likely be a good candidate! Please reach out before April 30 and we can talk: [email protected] you’re a listener to this show and aren’t in the above boat, you can still help! I’d love to have quotes, letters, and more for my packet describing the impact this and my other research or teaching work has had on you. Those can be collected throughout the summer, but sooner would be better! Reach out if you want to help—I’d really appreciate it! [email protected]

    Addendum: Since I’ve come to record this episode, I’ve learned that there are in fact some varieties of figs that do not require wasps to pollinate them. Still, the truth that most figs pretty much consume wasps in order to become figs is undeniably A PROBLEM that we must reckon with as a species if we are going to continue to live on this planet.

    · Did I Do That?: Making Graphic Design & Mistakes

    Lena Hall of Fontroversy is on Did I Do That?! Or Sean Schumacher is on Fontroversy!? We’re all mixed up because it’s a Did I Do That?-Fontroversy acoustic universe crossover spectacular to kick off one of those shows’ fourth season!

    The two hosts sit down to talk about the process behind getting Fontroversy off the ground, as well as Lena’s Fallout Boy audition outfit, the meltiest car, and the Wizarding World of Woody Harrelson.

    You can find more about Lena ’s work on their Instagram, @ps.its.lena. They are indeed graduating soon and you should absolutely hire them! You can view Lena's font horoscopes for the both of us here!
