Thoughts on Typography and Chicken McNuggets

Starting with a TED talk by Stephen Sagmeister on his "Things I have learned in my life so far." His use of 3-dimensional typography using objects is probably one of the most copied things I see in graphic design these days. And he's been doing it for quite awhile. Although I also have to give props to Ed Ruscha who was doing it even before that.

Next up, via Wooster Collective, Evan Roth's "TSA Communication." A simple and fun idea, but one that will not speed up the security line.

Lastly, also on Wooster Collective, Banksy is in NY and his "Village Pet Store and Charcoal Grill" is the most fun thing I've seen in a while. The baby Chicken McNuggets are the best.
