    45: Special Guest | Erik Spiekermann

    Remo’s guest for this episode of the REMORANDOM video podcast is Berliner Erik Spiekermann. Erik is an internationally renowned designer, typographer, type designer, entrepreneur and author. Some of his typefaces, e.g. FF Meta (the REMO typeface since 2008) and ITC Officina, are considered modern classics. In the early days of the internet, he set new standards for the global online distribution of typefaces through FontShop, leaving a lasting mark on the infrastructure of digital type design. As well as being a type designer, Erik has created the visual identities of major corporations and public institutions through his companies MetaDesign and EdenSpiekermann. He has been committed to preserving the tradition of classic lead typesetting and promoting letterpress printing as a vital foundation of typography and the art of printing for many years (check out Hacking Gutenberg). His book Stop Stealing Sheep & Find out how type works (1993), now in its 4th edition, remains a go-to guide for typographic literacy. Erik and Remo chat about: old times, new times – and everything in between. hackinggutenberg.berlin Support Erik’s workshop.

    44: Special Guest | James De Vries, Design Thinker

    In this episode Remo and Claudia are joined by Sydney-based design thinker James De Vries in a chat about communications design – and how, despite the ever-evolving media landscape, it all ultimately comes down to the art and craft of storytelling. James has had a lot of experience designing a range of newspapers and magazines both in Australia and Asia. He also worked at Harvard Business Review from 2011 to 2017 as the Creative Director charged with the task of modernising their entire media portfolio – AND he was also an early design collaborator with Remo. His name is still attached to many of the most iconic REMO T-shirt designs.

We’ll give you some history. 📍 Still on the subject of Chinese culture, we look at baoding balls. You know those musical metal balls that you sometimes see people rolling around in their hands? 📍 And finally, in this episode, however BIG you are hoping to make your marriage proposal in this performative age of viral one-upmanship.

    39: Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, Nouns of Assembly, Snowflake Bentley, Met Gala

    Game changer has become an overused turn of phrase, but few would argue that it doesn’t apply to Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, a groundbreaking album released by T he Beatles in 1967. 📍 A charm of finches, a business of ferrets, a paddling of ducks, a kindle of kittens, and yes, even a barrel of monkeys. These collective words are called “nouns of assembly”, and we’ll explore their origin. 📍 The idea that no two snowflakes are alike is technically true. Wilson Snowflake Bentley was a Vermont farmer who became the first person to photograph individual snowflakes using a microscope. Bentley spent his life capturing more than 5,000 snowflake images. We’ll tell you his story. 📍 And finally, in this episode of REMORANDOM, the Met Gala is an annual fundraising event for the Metropolitan Museum of Arts Costume Institute in New York City, and it’s become one of the most celebrated events in the fashion world.
