6 questions to … Julie K. Andersen & Stig Møller Hansen
Julie K. Andersen and Stig Møller Hansen are both lecturer at the Danish School of Media and Journalism. Whereas Julie is all about tangible pieces crafted by hand in laborious techniques like knitting, crochetting and so forth, like the project she showed at TYPO 2013 (watch video), Stig as an interactive designer and coder sees code as a creative tool for the designer. AT TYPO Berlin 2014 they’ll talk about their collaboration “Man vs. Machine” where it’s all about combining these two approaches to produce something new that has the qualities from each approach.

Four or so questions to … Ann Bessemans
Ann Bessemans (°1983) has a MA in graphic design (Provinciale Hogeschool Limburg). Her typographic graduation project was awarded a national prize. On October 25, 2012, she defended her PhD dissertation entitled “Type Design for Children with Low Vision”, under the supervision of Prof. Gerard Unger (Leiden University) and Prof. Dr. Bert Willems (Hasselt University). Bessemans’ PhD project is an attempt at bridging the gap between font designers and cognitive scientists studying the legibility of letter characters. The ultimate goal of this PhD project was to design a font that can reduce the reading problems of children with low vision.

Helena Dell-Kolaschnik on current Russian Design
Helena Dell-Kolaschnik has been in touch with important representatives of the design industry in Russia for many years. After extensive research on the spot concerning the identity and status of Russian design and pioneer designers in Russia in the context of her MA thesis at FH Potsdam, her blog and she herself have become an important reference for Russian designers interested in an exchange with Germany.
We are very happy to have Helena on board TYPO Berlin 2013 and we sent her a few questions regarding this year’s TYPO Berlin’s Design Special on Russia.

Four or so questions to … Paul Barritt
Paul is an animator and filmmaker. He is also the managing director of the theater company 1927 which he founded with Suzanne Andrade in 2005. Their production of Mozart’s “The Magic Flute”, which is running at the Komische Oper Berlin at the moment has audiences rapt. The Guardian describes their shows as “A perfect mixture of all the things worth loving: silent films, the cabaret of the Weimar Republic, David Lynch, and the brothers Grimm”. Paul will be speaking on Saturday 18 2013 at 16:00 on TYPO Hall. Check here for the full programme.
