All Fired Up Celebrating its 10th year of publication, with issue 26 Emigre continues to highlight the experimental spirit that lurks within the field of graphic design. Featuring an in depth interview with THIRST'S Rick Valicenti, who discusses his work for Gilbert Paper, his "propaganda that's good for human life," and self promotion, among other topics. Then, an overview of the stellar typeface production of Italian designer Aldo Novarese, with a critical essay by Sergio Polano and Pierpaolo Vetta. Keith Robertson muses on white space and asks: "How could something so minimal be invested with so much value?" Also included are discussions with readers about the exportability of graphic design across cultural boundaries (in response to Emigre 25), as well as copyright and piracy. 46. Ambition/Fear Emigre 11 is entirely devoted to the initial response by the world of graphic design to the introduction of the Macintosh computer. Featuring interviews with graphic designers from around the world including Philippe Apeloig, Matthew Carter, Jeffery Keedy, Takenobu Igarashi, Gerard Hadders, Max Kisman, Rick Valicenti, Glenn Suokko, Clement Mok, Erik Spiekermann and others. Inspired by Warren Lehrer's book French Fries, in which the designer used a different typeface for each character in the book, designer VanderLans, too, assigned a different typeface to each interview. The various interviews run alongside each other, creating a notion of everybody speaking at once emphasizing the urgency and excitement felt by the designers. Various designers were invited to each design a page encouraging the readers to "Keep on Reading." The page numbers were designed by the graduate students at California Institute of Arts, Valencia. Introduction by Rudy Vanderlans and Zuzana Licko. 47. Catfish Elliott Earls presents Catfish, a designer monograph in feature film format. Catfish (The Eye Sling Shot Lions Chronicle) is a 55 minute tour de force providing the main content of Emigre 62. The film fuses together Earls's ventures into uncountable disciplines including graphic design, music, poetry, criticism, performance art, writing, type design and more. Earls work is best described as American culture put through a blender, and the use and misuse of the different media he employs shows us what lies beyond the obvious. Earls is a long time Emigre collaborator. He is the current head of the Graphic Design department at Cranbrook Academy of Art, and former artist in residence at Benneton's Fabrica in Italy. Catfish is presented on DVD and is playable on most consumer DVD players and on any computer equipped with a DVD player and appropriate software. The DVD is presented in a custom made cardboard folder. Also included is a 64-page Emigre magazine featuring the typeface designs of Elliott Earls, the introduction of the OpenType version of Zuzana Licko's best selling typeface Mrs Eaves, the new additions to the Cholla family of fonts designed by Sibylle Hagmann, and an essay by Kenneth FitzGerald on the value of independent publishing. 48. Culprits Introducing new typeface designs and writings by Jonathan Barnbrook (England), Miles Newlyn (England), Zuzana Licko (USA), Barry Deck (USA) and Frank Heine (Germany). Featuring the essay titled "Legible?" by Gerard Unger (Holland) in which this noted Dutch type designer eloquently elucidates why there will always be a need for new typefaces. Also, bound into this issue is an interview/poster project designed and produced by P. Scott Makela (USA) whose debut CD titled Commbine, by his studio project Audioafterbirth, was released on the Emigre Music label shortly after the publication of this issue. 49. Do You Read Me? This issue is about type. It is about our interest in the design of new typefaces and our concern for their legibility, and why we need new typefaces in the first place. Featuring new, original typeface designs by, and interviews with, type designers Zuzana Licko, Jeffery Keedy, Barry Deck and Max Kisman. Also, conversations about type with design critic Karrie Jacobs, and Johnny D., a distant relative of THIRST. Plus, Peter Mertens, of the Dutch magazine TYP, explains why illegibility is a misnomer. And Ellen Lupton and J. Abbott Miller discuss Structuralism and typography in their essay "Type Writing." Includes a large size pull-out poster titled "Do You Read Me." 50. Economy of Means Emigre 59 is a unique design collaboration between San Francisco based design team Fake I.D. and Emigre's Rudy VanderLans and Zuzana Licko. The issue is created around the critical essays of Rick Poynor and Chris Riley, with design concepts and illustrations by Fake I.D.'s Joshua Trees and Yvan Martinez, typographic treatments by VanderLans, and introducing new bitmap font designs by Zuzana Licko. In his article "Sustainable Consumerism," Chris Riley, who is the Chief Strategic Officer at Wieden + Kennedy, gives us an alternative look at branding. He explains how major brands must connect with the social, cultural and environmental concerns of their target audiences in order to sustain brand loyalty. Rick Poynor, design critic and founding editor of Eye magazine, in his article "First Things Next," revisits the First Things First Manifesto 2000. He gives us an overview of the impassioned and seemingly never-ending response the manifesto has generated since it was republished in 2000. Poynor sorts out the many differing opinions with input from design activists and manifesto signatories such as Milton Glaser, Jan van Toorn, Katherine McCoy and others. Zuzana Licko also revisits a previous idea, this one with its roots in the mid eighties. Her latest project, the Lo-Res family of fonts, is a synthesis of pixelated designs, including Emigre's earlier coarse resolution fonts, as well as bitmap representations of Base 9.
