Graphic Design on the Radio
You may already be a fan of TV on the Radio, but how about Graphic Design on the Radio? Despite having a score of episodes under his belt and being a well known graphic designer and critic, Englishman Adrian Shaughnessy's fine radio show flies a bit under the radar. For we Yanks, we're best off listening online at Graphic Design on the Radio.
I've been skipping about through the archives and what I love so much about Shaughnessy is the degree to which he really thinks about the capacity of graphic design to lead social change. From conversations about social design to engaging chats with young, energetic designers, the goal is always to shed more light on what can be an esoteric practice.
Design fans will walk away from each episode anxious to check out new blogs and look up undersung designers. The show has a strongly Anglophilic bent so the element of discovery is doubled should you not be totally up on your UK graphic design scene. Get listening.
