Chip Kidd, AKA 8th Man

I thought his presentation was interesting because it seemed that he often focused on his failures. It was something great to hear, especially at our point in our artistic careers because we fail often, so hearing that somebody so prestigious still has failures is very encouraging. Going into the lecture, I didn't have a great idea who he was, so I would have liked him to give more of an overview of his work, maybe talk about what he's contributed to art. In general though, it was a very enjoyable lecture, he kept me interested and laughing.

Blogger and/or the Export feature is kind of weird in that it left the edges uncut, including the "non-print" part of the file. Either way, it's not a big difference, but imagine all the edges were clean.
