On today's episode, we are going to talk about design through the lens of policy.
Rick Griffith is a British-West-Indian collagist, writer, letterpress printer, designer, and optimist futurist based in Denver, Colorado. As a designer, he works at the intersection of programming, policy, and production. He is a columnist for PRINTmag.com, the two-time programming chair for the AIGA National Conference, and the 2023 Acuff Chair at Austin Peay State University. Rick’s works are collected and exhibited worldwide and can be found in the permanent collections of The Denver Art Museum, The Hamilton Wood Type and Printing Museum, Columbia University’s Rare Book & Manuscript Library, and The Tweed Museum at the University of Minnesota, Duluth. He is a founder and partner with Debra Johnson of the graphic design consultancy MATTER, the designer behind the Black Astronaut Research Project (BLARP.org), The Pledge for Spaces, and the Introductory Ethic for Designers and Other Thinking Persons. One of his favorite long-term design projects is a bookstore for designers and revolutionaries. He DJs a live Internet radio show, Design To Kill, every Tuesday 6 pm Eastern Time.
