"The capacity to read particularly is not just a nice to have. It's actually a moral imperative. If we want people to be good in the world, this is a huge issue, especially for designers, especially in the type world, especially right. If there's any, if we can say there's any moral claim of what's good for us, (as type designer) is people being able to read."In this episode, I speak with Thomas Jochin, founder, partner, adjunct lecturer, and practicing type designer. We chatted about how he was inspired by the power of the community to start a typographic meetup called Type Thursday. We also discuss his partnership with a fellow educator to tackle the daunting task of reading proficiency, and It has something to do with type.Hope you enjoy our in-depth conversation.People Mentioned:Jessica HischeJoshua DardenChristian Schwartz Chester JenkinsMatteo BolognaJeremy Mickelvllg.comBonnie Shaver-TroupDesign recharge, Diane GibbsDribbbleNadine Chahine -----Follow Work in Process on:Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook.Help support the process and rate us on Apple Podcasts :) About the Works in Process Podcast:A podcast series by George Garrastegui, Jr. — designer, educator, and creative catalyst.
