luke post 11: Zuzana Licko

Zuzana Licko, born 1951 is a typeface designer from Bratislava. She studied architecture, photography and computer programming before taking a degree in graphic communications at the University of California at Berkeley Zuzana Licko is the co-founder of Emigre, together with her husband Rudy VanderLans. Emigre Magazine was founded in 1984 and garnered much critical acclaim when it began to incorporate Licko's digital typeface designs created with the first generation of the Macintosh computer. This exposure of her typefaces in Emigre magazine led to the manufacture of Emigre Fonts, which Emigre now distributes as software, worldwide. Emigre's development reflected the evolution of digital technology while questioning conventional ideas of legibility and layout. Licko's highly structured typefaces counterbalanced VanderLans' organic compositions. The "Emigre aesthetic" lay at the heart of a once-controversial battle on the American design scene, pitting them against Modernists such as Massimo Vignelli, who referred to the new typography as "garbage." The debate did little to slow the popularisation of the Emigre fonts, which by the late 1980s had moved beyond alternative pop cult status into the mainstream (The New York Times, ABC and Nike). The graphic design establishment has since recognised Licko and VanderLans with a 1994 Chrysler Award, the 1997 AIGA gold medal and the 1998 Charles Nypels Award for Innovation in Typography.

luke post 10: Rick Griffin/Mathew Carter

Richard Alden Griffin was an American artist and one of the leading designers of psychedelic posters in the 1960s. He was also a contributor to the underground comix. Griffin was closely identified with the Grateful Dead, having designed some of their best known posters and record jackets. He was also known for his work within the surfing subculture, including his comic strip about a surfer named "Murphy". After attending high school, he worked on the staff of Surfer magazine where he created his surfing comic strip. In Los Angeles, Griffin met a group of artists and musicians known as the Jook Savages and participated in the Watts Acid Test held by Ken Kesey. After seeing the psychedelic rock posters that were being designed by Stanley Mouse and Alton Kelly, Griffin and the Jook Savages decided to move to San Francisco in the fall of 1966, where he designed posters in the living room of his home on Elsie Street in the Bernal Heights district. Eventually, a poster distribution agency by the name of Berkeley Bonaparte hired Griffin, where he teamed up with the leading poster artists of the 1960s. He published The Illustrated Book of St. John, a retelling of the Gospel of John with his unique illustrations. In 1991, Griffin was killed in a motorcycle accident in Petaluma, California.

Carter eventually returned to London where he became a freelancer as well as the typographic advisor to Crosfield Electronics, distributors of Photon phototypesetting machines.. Matthew Carter focuses on improving many typefaces' readability. He designs specifically for Apple and Microsoft computers. Georgia and Verdana are two fonts that have been created primarily for viewing on computer monitors.
