A talk with James Dyer and Nick Deakin about the creative process of writing "Graphic Events: A Realist Account of Graphic Design", published by Onomatopee.
A conversation with Nick and James about graphic design.
Graphics have a way of living that is often awkward and unplanned. We see it when they are ripped from walls, littered on streets and faded in shop windows. We wouldn’t say they are that way by design, however this everyday difference between graphics and their designs is under-imagined in critical discourses. Graphic Events intensifies these differences in a montage of original essays and interviews that coax graphics into unfamiliar dialogues.
