Qualche settimana fa, al Festival di Cannes, ho visto 36 film e soltanto in due le mascherine e i dispenser di igienizzante facevano capolino. E non era solo l’immaginario a latitare ma il suo vocabolario: nessun dialogo, nessun confronto, nessun dibattito tra i personaggi. È esattamente un anno e mezzo che la crisi sanitaria è iniziata, una buona parte dei film che vediamo ai festival è stata girata in questo lasso di tempo, eppure… Il delegato generale di Cannes, Thierry Frémaux, il maggio scorso, presentando il Festival aveva detto: «In alcuni film spuntano le mascherine e un giorno rivedendoli ci chiederemo il perché».

  • April Studied at Kansas City Art Institute As a Graphic Design Major
    April Greiman April studied at Kansas City Art Institute as a graphic design major. At the Art Institute, April began to learn about and explore Modernism. Some of her professors at the Kansas City Art Institute had studied at the Basel School of Design in Switzerland. Enthused by her professors, April decided to attend the Basel School of Design to complete her graduate work. Postmodernism is a term that is open to inter- pretation. Some feel that postmodernism is a tweak on modernist ideals. Others feel that postmodernism is a rebellion or reaction to previous political ideas that were deemed to be corrupt. Post modernism related to graphic design is more open to view points. There is not one specific standard that applies to all postmodern art. The notion about this movement is that it is what you make it. As a graphic designer, April reacted to the changes around her, used the ideas from modernism while embracing new outlooks and new changes. Tak- ing advantage of both old and new tools, April created postmodern and transmedia works. Post Modernism occurred after the “New Wave”. It was This piece was not created by April Greiman, but was instead created to reflect Greiman’s popular in the late 1980’s, 1990’s and it even extends to work.

This piece was sponsored by the Philadel- current art practices. phia chapter of the American Institute of Graphic Arts.

  • Revisiting the So-Called “Legibility Wars” of the '80S and '
    58 PRINT 70.3 FALL 2016 PRINTMAG.COM 59 HAT DID YOU DO during the Legibility Wars?” asked one of my more inquisitive design history students. “Well, it wasn’t actually a war,” I said, recalling the period during the mid-’80s through the mid- to late-’90s when there were stark divisions “Wbetween new and old design generations—the young anti- Modernists, and the established followers of Modernism. “It was rather a skirmish between a bunch of young designers, like your age now, who were called New Wave, Postmodern, Swiss Punk, whatever, and believed it necessary to reject the status quo for something freer and more contemporary. Doing that meant criticizing old-guard designers, who believed design should be simple—clean on tight grids and Helveticized.” “Do you mean bland?” he quizzed further. “Maybe some of it was bland!” I conceded. “But it was more like a new generation was feeling its oats and it was inevitable.” New technology was making unprecedented options possible. Aesthetic standards were changing because young designers wanted to try everything, while the older, especially the devout Modern ones, believed everything had already been tried. “I read that Massimo Vignelli called a lot of the new digital and retro stuff ‘garbage,’” he said. “What did you say or do about it back then?” “I was more or less on the Modernist side and wrote about it in a 1993 Eye magazine essay called ‘Cult of the Ugly.’” I wasn’t against illegibility per se, just the stuff that seemed to be done badly. I justified biased distinctions not between beauty and ugly, but between good ugly and bad ugly, or what was done with an experimental rationale and with merely style and fashion as the motive.

Audience Feedback as an Influence on Graphic Design Problem Solving Christopher Petrides Graphic Design MFA Program School of Design College of Imaging Arts and Sciences Rochester Institute of Technology Rochester, New York Fall 2011 1 Abstract User-generated feedback is arguably the most efficient tool to evaluate a specific product or service. Even though it is widely used to evaluate and subsequently improve video game design, it is not commonly used for graphic design applications. The aim of this thesis is to demonstrate how user-generated feedback can be utilized to improve existing graphic design applications. Specifically, three types of feedback collection vehicles were selected for use in graphic design: personal observation, evaluation polls, and existing video game design feedback. In order to demonstrate the advantage of using user- generated feedback, information collected through the feedback collection
