Jen White-Johnson — Advocating and Uplifting Joy.
Our guest, Jen White-Johnson a Designer, Photographer, Art Activist, and Art Educator. She teaches as an Assistant Professor of Visual Communication at Bowie State University (HBCU) where her work focuses on the intersection of content and caregiving with an emphasis on redesigning ableist visual culture. When her son was diagnosed as Autistic at age 2 she began to examine the absence of black disabled children in digital and literary media, this motivated the release of an advocacy photo zine entitled "KnoxRoxs." Dedicated to her Autistic son, the zine is a way to give visibility to children of color in the black Autistic community. Since its release, the zine has received national and international recognition, including features in AfroPunk, Today at Apple, and is permanently archived in Libraries at The Metropolitan Museum of Art and the National Museum of Women in the Arts. This year her activist work has been featured in the New York Times, Rolling Stone, Crip Camp, and she was recently selected as an honoree on the 2020 Diversability’s D-30 Disability Impact List.It’s for her advocacy and her artistic impact that I have on the podcast, and I hope you enjoy the candid nature in which we discuss her artistic voice and how visuals help advance the conversation around black and brown disabled voices.Mentions /LinksMusic, a film by SiaKnox Roxs: The ZineBlack Disabled Lives MatterMapping AccessBaltimore Creatives Acceleration NetworkBronxNetUninvisible PodcastKrip Hop nation Follow Jen atPersonal Website   /.

Dan Castro — Pivot! Adjusting the narrative.
Don't get too comfortable."I kind of feel if I know how to do it, too well, then I'm not having fun— I'm more like executing. So the moment that you shut off and just start doing the same thing that you did for somebody else, or kind of project, again and again, you're kind of losing what makes it so special. So yeah, just get out there and do it!"MentionsSky Pie https://skypie.co/Make Love https://skypie.co/make-love-1Offf https://offf.barcelona/en/Sweet Lies https://skypie.co/sweetlies2Marion Favier https://marionfavier.com/NYCFotoWorks http://www.nycfotoworks.com/CreditsProduced by HearSay ProductionsIntro / Outro Music: “Gotta Get Up” courtesy of The Passion HiFi————Like what you just heard?

Thomas Jockin — Make it easier for people to say yes.
"The capacity to read particularly is not just a nice to have. It's actually a moral imperative. If we want people to be good in the world, this is a huge issue, especially for designers, especially in the type world, especially right. If there's any, if we can say there's any moral claim of what's good for us, (as type designer) is people being able to read."In this episode, I speak with Thomas Jochin, founder, partner, adjunct lecturer, and practicing type designer. We chatted about how he was inspired by the power of the community to start a typographic meetup called Type Thursday. We also discuss his partnership with a fellow educator to tackle the daunting task of reading proficiency, and It has something to do with type.Hope you enjoy our in-depth conversation.People Mentioned:Jessica HischeJoshua DardenChristian Schwartz Chester JenkinsMatteo BolognaJeremy Mickelvllg.comBonnie Shaver-TroupDesign recharge, Diane GibbsDribbbleNadine Chahine -----Follow Work in Process on:Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook.Help support the process and rate us on Apple Podcasts :) About the Works in Process Podcast:A podcast series by George Garrastegui, Jr. — designer, educator, and creative catalyst.

Peter Ahlberg — The Role of Drawing as a Process
**"the sooner a designer can embrace the process, and if you can learn to work quickly, and in different ways, you can make a lot of different work in a fairly short time frame..." **—  Peter Ahlberg: Designer, Author, EducatorI talk to Peter Ahlberg, partner at Ahl & Co about creating his exhibition and book around the creative process. he mentions what it was like to talk to design icons and write a book from the perspective of someone who teaches and is a grad from the School of Visuals Arts in NYC. He mentions the ways and approaches that link the design process to that of drawing and mark-making. It was a fun conversation and learned how his book Please Make this look Nice sparked this very podcast. We discussed all of the iterations of his SVA Poster. Then, he also shares some critical insight into how designers should be working interdisciplinary.Hope you enjoy it.MentionsExperimental JetsetLubalin CenterSaul SteinbergBob GillMichael RockIvan ChermayeffDavid Foster Wallace - Brief Interview with hideous men.Stephen DoyleMilton GlaserRichard WildeEd FellaGail AndersonEd RuschaLawrence WeinerTom Waits -----From Peter:Within the last year, we started a book-making-specific company called Bound Book Advisory (boundbookadvisory.com). In addition to some background work we have done for different clients, since the start of the pandemic we have been quite busy working with makers, thinkers, and generally brilliant and inspired people who have something to say—develop, produce, and publish book projects outside of the typical avenues of book publishing. It has been super exciting and in the coming months we will be launching two notable books—one about natural dying and the other about an exquisitely beautiful collection of printed ephemera salvaged from NYC sidewalks over the last 20 years. We'd obviously love to hear from anyone who has a great book idea bouncing around but doesn't necessarily want to go through a publisher and wait two years for the book to come out.-----Follow Work in Process on:Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook.Help support the process and rate us on Apple Podcasts :) About the Works in Process Podcast:A podcast series by George Garrastegui, Jr. — designer, educator, and creative catalyst.

Armin Vit — It's not about you.
“The ability to make something look finished, which I think is both a strength and a weakness ... because then you can make anything look good regardless of whether it makes sense or not. If you’re not doing things for the right reasons, with the right thinking behind it and you're just worried about how it looks on Behance, and how many likes it’s going to get you’re doing is wrong!” —  Armin Vit. Designer, Writer, My own intern.In this episode, I chat with the designer and writer Armin Vit. He is co-founder and one half to the dynamic duo the constitutes the design firm Under Consideration. I catch up with him today from his house in Bloomington Indiana where he and his wife Byrony focus on many extensions of there UC brand. They have written books and created a multitude of blogs that cover various aspects of design. And now run an annual conference called Brand New, which focuses on the showcase corporate and brand identity work. Most recently the have created an offshoot of that called First Rounds. This one-day event is a showcase of original presentations made to clients showing the initial design explorations phase— its what I’ll be talking to him extensively about.

Dr. Fahamu Pecou - Visual Rope-a-Dope
In this episode, I finally catch up with longtime friend, Dr. Fahamu Pecou. Fahamu is an artist, scholar, and agitator whose work has been featured in galleries, museums in the backdrops of television shows. His early focus on “making Fahamu Pecou officially the shit” and the extensive series on black masculinity has propelled him to explore what it truly means to be black in America. We talked about his short stint back in New York after art school, then the need to go back to Atlanta and just want to paint, as well his campaign to become “the $h!t.” I learned how his creative skills progressed over the years, but also that he allowed mistakes to guide his discovery and produce new bodies of work. Then I found out why, after all of his success, he decided to go back to Emory University and get his Ph.D. What’s next for Fahamu: A look into what Public Scholarship means, bring work to the masses. And his latest show in Atlanta, Do Or Die: Affect Ritual Resistance is on view at the Carlos Museum of Art at Emory University through April 28, 2019.

Nick Misani — Celebrating the details
"Being overconfident can do more hard than good— (especially) if you think that everything is going to be easy for you and you deserve everything right off the bat... people get into a lot of trouble and their growth gets stifled a little bit if they're not open to just toiling away in the dark for quite some time...” In this episode, I met up with Penguin Books, Mucca Design, and Fili Ltd. alum Nick Misani. Nick has been honing his typographic skills by designing decorative book covers and digging into the history books to learn more from historical references—this has led him to the successful side project called Fauxsacis. Our conversation went a bit long, but it was the first time meeting Nick. Not only did I want to hear more about the process of beginning a project like Fauxsaicas, but also I what he learn from working with Louise Fili. Even though Nick was getting over a cold, he shared some wisdom on why the limitations of his fake mosaics are rooted in tradition, why he decided to start this as an Instagram project, and what he has in store for the future. Look out USA, he's bringing workshops to a city near you :) Thanks again Nick for a great interview! Sorry my procrastination delayed the release of your episode and say hi to Cooper. (his dog) Fauxsaics is a series of travel-inspired, typographic mosaic illustrations—which has since been featured on a variety of design sites and blogs including the ADC/The One Club blog.

Michael Braley — Clarity, Simplicity, Impact.
"The hard part is for some people is allowing themselves TO be that simple, and over complicate it, not more is better, but to overthink it … sometimes you're just done, you have it. It might take five minutes or it might take 3 weeks—but just stop when you know you have it.” — Michael Braley: Creative Director, Designer, Simplifier. In this episode to talk to Michael Braley Creative director and simplifier graphic designer with over 25 years experience in branding and annual reports and most notably poster design. I catch up with him from Kentucky to discuss the power research, discovery, and sometimes just to know the right time to finish that project. During our chat I learned a lot more than I knew before. His father, Richard Braley, designed the logo for Behr paint, he aspired to be in the same company as the co-workers at Cahan and Associates, and that even though he has created some visually stunning posters, he values the process of coming up with  them more than the final. (Sound right up our alley) Thanks Michael for being my first Skype interview, and keep it CSI!

Justin Teodoro — Superheroes to Supermodels.
"I think I've learned to go, OKAY it's fine to put this one (project) hold, maybe draw something else, maybe go for a walk, go for a drink ... I've learned to take it easier on myself and not put so much pressure to make it happen." — Justin Teodoro: Artist and Illustrator.

David Soto — The ruler is always straight.
David Soto: graphic designer for fashion and a letterer. In this episode, I talk to a long time friend, who has created quite a following for himself on Instagram. David continues to connect with his 20k+ followers by establishing an open dialogue with like-minded type aficionados. "Instagram … that's basically my second portfolio. I have gotten more work using my Instagram page that with my regular portfolio. It's because I am able to share my process."artist… and, no one can take that away from you." — David Soto, I get the inside scoop on what self-propelled him to dig back in and re educate himself on the ins-and outs of custom lettering. He discusses the frustration of searching for the “right” typeface to now being able to create what is in his sketch book exactly. He also finds ways to keep client relationships open and intact while not overextend himself. But some of the most valuable advice Davis shares is about building his brand and the role of consistency: Be consistent in what you post. Be consistent in when you post. Be consistent in how you engage with your audience. And above all, don't force it, be authentic — building a brand, like good design— takes time.   SHOWNOTES / LINKS  AIGA/NY Mentoring program @aka.dope Jessica Hische - Daily Drop Cap Microsoft Outlook Instagram 30 #hashtags limit Apple Pencil iPad Pro Adobe sketch Where else to find David: on Instagram on Facebook on LinkedIn   Visit the Works in Process website for more on this episode: http://wip.show/episode/wip-04-david-soto About the Works in Process Podcast: A podcast series by George Garrastegui, Jr. — designer, educator and creative catalyst.

Natalie Cooperman aka Nattmade: textile designer, and an illustrator. I talk to Natalie, who after being in the fashion industry for over 15 years is taking her passion and rekindling her love for making art. "Just start drawing … you are going to make a lot of ugly ones before you get the one you want." Visiting Nattmade in her apartment, we discuss what has made her into the artist she is today. I learned that while working for various fashion companies, Natalie was inspired to create again, and hasn't stopped since. She has had art shows at local bars, created an ABC book based on animals she has drawn for her daughter and explains her love for Jackson Pollack. Nattmade keeps on creating because she just can't stop, it gives her peace.   Mentions / Links  Norman Rockwell Jackson Pollock Martha Stewart Project Mini Bar exhibit   Project / Works 50 days of drawing ABC Book Paper Doll Project   Resources / Tools Style Careers Art Snacks Windsor Newton Watercolors Draft Matic mechanical pencil   Where else to find Natalie: on Instagram on Facebook on Etsy Shop or Personal Website   Visit the Works in Process website for more on this episode: http://wip.show/episode/wip-03-natalie-cooperman/ About the Works in Process Podcast: A podcast series by George Garrastegui, Jr. — designer, educator and creative catalyst.

Eli Neugeboren — I didn't know what to draw.
Eli Neugeboren: illustrator and educator. In this episode, I sit down with my colleague Eli, who teaches and reside in Brooklyn, NY. He has amassed over 1000 different illustrations from his ongoing project Drawing the News and is not stopping anytime soon. "The idea of paying your dues … that’s basically what fakin’ it ‘til you make it is. That's you payin’ your dues. You say yes to everything and figure it out along the way … and, just work really hard if you want to be good.” We discuss Eli’s trajectory from a painter to retoucher, to educator and illustrator — and his collaboration with WTF Just Happened Today. Also, we find out why it’s important to have a recognizable visual drawing style, how putting in the work is the key to success_(in his case anyway)_, and why working with your kids as your art directors is some of the most rewarding work you can do. Great learning from your hard work, thanks Eli!   Where to connect w/ Eli: on Instagram on Facebook on Twitter or WTFJHT   Eli's Work:  Drawing the News ENOOGS on Patreon WTFJustHappenedToday Process videos   Visit the Works in Process website for more on this episode: wip.show/episode/wip-02-eli-neugeboren/ About the Works in Process Podcast: A podcast series by George Garrastegui, Jr. — designer, educator and creative catalyst.

Lisa Pertoso — Am I a writer because I write?
Lisa Pertoso: design facilitator, writer, and comedian. In this episode, our guest is Lisa Pertoso. She teaches experiential learning processes to companies and organizations, and she writes. "…in my younger years I did a lot of thinking and obviously talking myself out of doing a lot of things, Just stop that. Try to kill that voice and just do, and by doing you’re already creating and you’re some kind of artist… and, no one can take that away from you." Today we discussed the struggles of maintaining a writing routine and the inspiration for writing her memoir, her blog 100 First Dates. We spoke about her reaction to being heartbroken, why a routine helps to maintain a sense of normalcy when freelancing and, how to just get off your butt and start something because now is always the best time. Lisa has so many good pieces of advice, but this stood out to me, self-doubt should never play a factor in your creative journey — Just do, and be happy you did.

And, if you like this or some of the other episodes please leave us a rating, a review and subscribe to WiP.
