SUMMARY:Practicing Type in the Age of Screens
DESCRIPTION:Typeface design and the implementation of typography has never been more exciting. In many cases\, type is presented on monitors\, tiny and huge electronic visual displays\, i.e.\, screens. \nIn collaboration with the Type Directors Club\, Design Incubation will moderate a panel discussion among design innovators about their design and use of type in today’s changing environment. \nModerators \nLiz DeLuna\nSt John’s University \nDan Wong\nNew York City College of Technology\, CUNY \nPanelists \n\nJason Pamental\nJavier Viramontes\nNancy Campbell\nKsenya Samarskaya\n\n  \nDesign Incubation is a venue for educators and practitioners of Communication Design to discuss design research and practice. Our aim is to create a community where designers can assess creative work through a lens of scholarly activity and academic review. \nThe organization seeks to foster collaboration\, promote development\, encourage discourse\, cultivate theoretical frameworks\, challenge notions\, offer criticism\, and review processes within the design community. We include designers across experience levels and backgrounds— practicing designers\, graduate students\, adjunct and tenure-track faculty through to distinguished professors.

SUMMARY:Dichotomies Exhibition
