We started TYPO Berlin 2015 with the 42. Creative Mornings talk. This month’s speaker was Prof. Manfred Hild, who is Professor of Digital Systems at the Beuth University of Applied Sciences in Berlin. He presented his work on the humanoid robot Myon.
At the end of January, two juries from the type directors club in New York singled out the year’s best typography work for the 61st time. The prizes are given for typographic design – new fonts – as well as for their application, whether in books, posters, packaging, corporate design or in digital form. The work of the TDC competition winners will be seen in Europe for the first time in a three-week exhibition starting May 24, 2015, at Berlin’s Aufbau Haus artists’ complex.

Showcasing his agency’s colorful work in graphic design, branding, and animated type, Daniel Gjøde reminds us that sometimes, the smartest thing we can do is to stay stupid.
Joachim Sauter’s talk re-introduced poetry in its many-splendored modernized forms. Joachim has had a long, decorated, but – according to him – not particularly focused career. There are two types of designers, he tells us, focusers and wonderers.

Hailing from Copenhagen, Denmark, Daniel founded Stupid Studio in 2006 – an independent digital creative agency set out to do stuff for good companies, who believe they can change stuff to the better, funnier, or simply more comfortable. He’s also a board member of Design Denmark and the Advisory Board of the Danish School of Media & Journalism.
Die elektronische Musik und die Kunst haben in der Zeit vom Nachkrieg bis heute eine Tür in eine neue Welt geöffnet, so Schult, durch die wir „vielleicht eine Chance für die Zukunft haben“, und, da ist er optimistisch, „das sieht sehr gut aus“. Das sei wie eine Wurzel, eine „Root“ oder ein Samenkorn, das sich 3D-mäßig entwickelt habe.
Author, artist, and avid cyclist Lisa Congdon gave an inspiring presentation on embarking on new, unfamiliar paths, and embracing the abyss along the way.
René Knip never wanted to be a graphic designer.
Amsterdam-based Moniker calls itself an interactive design studio, but that doesn’t begin to describe the multimedia design experiments that spring forth from the minds of Moniker’s Luna Maurer, Jonathan Puckey and Roel Wouters. Luna Maurer showcased some of the studio’s latest creations Thursday at Typo San Francisco 2014.
Rhythm Remarks is back again with our next speaker, George Zisiadis. Zisiadis is an interactive artist and designer who’s interdisciplinary projects playfully re-imagine the everyday and inspire people to see the world in new ways.
