David Carson on Typeradio(Internal News)
Oh...yeah...I know, I know...there are several posts around here announcing Typeradio.
Although, I think you should definitely check out the new podcast-episodes with one of my long-term heroes, David Carson. Yes, I'm a fan, a huge fan of his work since the first day my teacher in school introduced me to David Carson and I'm fascinated everyday how his approach to solve "problems" influenced many designers around the world including me.
Of course there are many wanna be designers who rip off his style and say afterwards "Hey man, look! I did some really trendy grungy, trashy stuff!" without knowing what they've done actually and why and what special meaning they put on their design.
I hope, I'm not one of these dudes...

i adored carson too. in fact he designed the layout for an article on my company in first point magazine recently.
thanks for the tip - can't wait to hear it.
sorry, i meant i 'adore' carson. still a big fan & watching his every move. i've been a fan since raygun. didn't know he did that until much later when i found his work again through nine inch nails.
all in all he just never stops impressing me & his book trek is a godsend.
ahhh...man, that's cool that you got in touch with raygun "in reality". I think I'd have been really fascinated if I were able to hold an real issue of beach culture or raygun in my own hands...
but the good old days of raygun and beach culture are beyond my time..hehe
I don't think you would be copying his style if you also use the techniques to problem-solving when it comes to your design work. I think he would appreciate that young designers are taking some of his approaches.
