In Pakistan sind Frauen auch im Tourismus stark unterrepräsentiert. Inzwischen gibt es aber Unternehmerinnen, die Touren nur für Frauen anbieten, um so ihr Bild von der Islamischen Republik zu zeigen. Das Interesse wächst, auch dank Social Media.

Von Michael Nikbakhsh. Episode #134 bringt eine Zusammenschau bereits behandelter Fälle, in die mehr oder weniger Bewegung gekommen ist. 1) Der Fall Sonja Sagmeister versus ORF: Sagmeister war mit ihrer Kündigungsanfechtung vor dem Arbeits- und Sozialgericht in erster Instanz erfolgreich. 2) Der Fall René Benko: Gegen ihn liegt ein europäischer Haftbefehl der italienischen Staatsanwaltschaft Trient vor, doch Österreich wird ihn nicht an Italien übergeben. Jetzt muss die WKStA die Vorwürfe aus Trient untersuchen. Das kann dauern. 3) Der Fall Eurofighter: Die WKStA hat mehr als 20 Jahre nach dem Rüstungsdeal Österreichs mit EADS Anklage gegen drei Personen eingebracht. EADS/Airbus ist in dem Wiener Verfahren die geschädigte Partei – wie sich ein Narrativ im Laufe der Jahre veränderte. 4) Der Fall Commerzialbank Mattersburg: 2025 bringt den ersten großen Strafprozess gegen die früheren Bankvorstände Martin Pucher und Franziska Klikovits. 5) Eine Maulwurfsuche. Die Staatsanwaltschaft Linz interessiert sich für meine Quellen. Deshalb muss ich demnächst bei der Polizei zur Zeugenaussage antreten.

Von Edith Meinhart und Michael Nikbakhsh. In Episode #125 sprechen wir mit Sonja Sagmeister. Sie war rund 30 Jahre als Journalistin für den ORF tätig, ehe sie gekündigt wurde. Sagmeister hat die Kündigung vor dem Arbeits- und Sozialgericht angefochten, das Verfahren ist noch nicht entschieden. Die Journalistin sagt, sie sei entfernt worden, weil sie allzu energisch für Pressefreiheit und unabhängigen Journalismus eingetreten sei. Der ORF verneint das – vielmehr habe sie Nebenbeschäftigungen nicht offengelegt.

Hi everyone! Today I'm speaking with Joe Hollier, Co-Founder of Light -> a minimalistic, non-addictive smartphone alternative. For those of you who have known me for a while I've been on a long-time mission to become more intention with the information I'm taking in and to cultivate more focus and flow into my day. Partner that with my long-time meditation practice and over the past few years it has become obvious to me that my phone... as convenient as it is... is definitely part of a larger problem.This year I "upgraded" to a Lightphone and started to set more serious boundaries with my phone. I noticed that on retreats/vacations/weekends when I don't have a traditional smartphone on me I feel more focused, intentional, and peaceful. On days when I am on my phone a lot I feel overwhelmed, more anxious, and "rushing" non-stop. I also found it more difficult to participate in things I loved: reading, learning, and tapping into that state of "deep focus".Well, it turns out I'm not alone. According to recent research: Checking phones has become so prevalent that more than 40 percent of consumers said they look at the devices within five minutes of waking up, according to a 2016 survey by Deloitte. Fifty percent said they check them in the middle of the night. “The brain starts learning how to switch rapidly from one task to another to another,” says William Klemm, senior professor of neuroscience at Texas A&M University and author of Teach Your Kids How to Learn. “It becomes a habit. But this habit conflicts with focused attentiveness.” Y'all, IDK about you but I don't feel good feeling so distracted - I want more peace and a sense of calm groundedness in my day-to-day. Enter Light - and this conversation.  What we talk about: Joe and Kaiwei's journey of creating a "light" phone in the era of "more is more" (more apps, more features, more addiction)What it was like building towards a very polarizing vision: the challenge of fundraising in an era where smartphones were all the rage & VC's were looking for "hockey stick" growthThe power of community: bringing customers along the journey of building a complex, multi-year hardware tech product (How crowdfunding made all the difference)The research behind going light + the benefits seen from case studies like schools that went 100% light phone and the benefits seen from customersWhat "actually" makes smartphones addictive?Why "screentime" often isn't enoughJoe's own journey of cultivating an "intentional" life (as an artist and multidisciplinary designer)What Joe predicts the future of social might look like AND tech companies he's loving these days+ so much more!About Joe:I'm a multi-disciplinary artist and entrepreneur. I studied design at the School of Visual Arts and graduated as the valedictorian. I started a design studio & skateboard company called Five on That, working as an animator, film maker, and illustrator mostly. I was also selling and exhibiting my painting and collage work. The Smithsonian commissioned a short film called "Diary". Other clients include Nike, CNN, the Lincoln Center, Debbie Millman, Office of Paul Sahre and Sagmeister & Walsh.

Are machines creative? Discover the evolving answer to this question due to GenAI in today's episode.  Pushing the boundaries between Design, Art, and Digital Technology, Martin Grödl and Moritz Resl founded Process Studio, an experimental design studio based in Vienna that specializes in generative and interactive design for branding, web, installation, and print. As well as traditional graphic design solutions, Process designs and develops highly specialized software that is used as tools for and by clients who include MIT, Design Museum Holon, MAK – Museum of Applied Arts Vienna, The Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium, and more.  In 2021, Process designed the official Austrian contribution to the London Design Biennale. In 2022 Martin and Moritz were appointed as guest professors in visual communication at the Salzburg University of Applied Sciences. Their work has been featured in design publications like Dezeen, WEAVE magazine, The Type Directors Club Annual, Gizmodo, and The New York Times among others. Martin is a designer, programmer, and artist. He participated multiple times in Google's Summer of Code working on further development of the Processing programming language and was a guest artist and researcher for Motion Bank in Frankfurt. He's taught courses on programming, generative graphic design for printmaking, data science, and more at the Vienna University of Technology.  Moritz is a Creative Director and Designer. Previous to co-founding Process, Moritz worked for Sagmeister & Walsh in New York City, where he designed for clients like Adobe and The Jewish Museum in Manhattan.  We dive into questions about A.I. and creativity in today's episode along with exploring the role of design, critical thinking, and data curation in helping envision the future in which we want to live. Listen to learn more about the custom-built A.I. tools that Martin and Moritz designed for their A.I. emojis and A.I. font projects and how the grungy punk aesthetic of their emojis reflects our emotions. Martin and Moritz also discuss how we're not separate from A.I. as the creators of the tools and how crucial it is that we understand how they work and the values that are fueling and driving them — enjoy!

With everything that's been happening lately, you'd think things are getting worse, not better. But here's the thing. Despite these challenging times, life has improved for the vast majority of people – from lower levels of crime to higher life expectancy around the world. It's encouraging stats like these that form the basis of Stefan Sagmeister's new book, Now is Better, and the focus of this week's episode. One of the world's most celebrated living designers, Sagmeister's exploration of human progress through the ages was inspired by a pessimistic conversation with a friend. Like many of us, his pal believed life was better in the "good old days" and that everything's got gloomier since then. But actually, that's simply not true. If you look at the facts, the world is more prosperous, people are living longer, and generally, things are better than they used to be. Sagmeister took it upon himself to prove his friend wrong in his latest creative project and used historical art and data visualisation to paint a rosier picture of how far we've come. "I found the phenomenon of a highly educated person, so influenced by the daily news cycle that he carries a completely wrong view of the world, fascinating," says Stefan. "From a communication-design point of view, it seemed an interesting direction to tackle." In showing us a more optimistic angle, he urges us to choose gratitude and positivity over pessimism and despair. And that's important, not just for our happiness and mental well-being but our drive and energy to create, too. Sagmeister formed the New York-based Sagmeister Inc. in 1993 and has since designed for clients as diverse as the Guggenheim Museum, the Rolling Stones, and HBO. His work is in museum collections worldwide, and he teaches in the graduate department of the School of Visual Arts in New York. We hope today's conversation with Sagmeister inspires you to think about the future with much-needed hope.

Kunst ist eine sehr relative Sache.Kunst ist nur für Menschen da.Es ist einem gar nicht bewusst, was für einen Mythos wir mit dem Kunsthaus Bregenz erreicht haben.Kunst ist ein grosses Abenteuer, eine Geistes- und Gefühlswelterweiterung.Dies sind  Zitate von Dr. Rudolf Sagmeister, dem Initiator, Mitbegründer und Kurator des Kunsthaus Bregenz das heuer 25 jährigs Jubiläumm feiert. Heute spreche ich mit ihm über die vielen internationalen Künstler, dessen Ausstellungen er im Kunsthaus Bregenz kuratiert hat. Wir sprechen über viele ausserordentliche Insides. Wir sprechen darüber, wie ein Hochclo, ein Schlammbad, ein Pornofilm, tonnenschwere Vaseline ihren Weg ins Museum schafften. Wir hören, wie das Kunsthaus Bregenz sich in ein Grab verwandelte und warum es so wichtig ist Kinder für die Kunst zu erwärmen. Ein aussergewöhnliches Gespräch, sehr offen und sympathisch mit einem sehr aussergewöhnlichen Kurator, Dr. Rudolf Sagmeister.

Stefan Sagmeister kreierte Plattencover für die Rolling Stones und kuratierte Ausstellungen zu «Glück» und «Schönheit». Der Wahl-New Yorker über den Stellenwert von Schönheit in Krisenzeiten. Mit einem gigantischen «YES»-Graffiti transformierte Stefan Sagmeister eine von Wildpinklern und Vandalen ramponierte Fussgängerunterführung zum Selfie-Hotspot für frischvermählte Paare. Über die Jahre hat er sich intensiv mit den Themen «Schönheit» und «Glück» auseinandergesetzt und wurde so zum Akteur an der Schnittstelle von Kunst und Design. Sagmeister hat sich zudem einen Namen als Gestalter von Albumcover für die Rolling Stones, Lou Reed und die Talking Heads gemacht. Wie man mit Mick Jagger verhandelt und wie es um seine eigenen Rockstar-Qualitäten bestellt ist, verrät er in «Focus».

In dieser Episode spricht erstmals Nancy Kolb aus unserem FOUNDress-Team mit der Unternehmerin Sofie Sagmeister. Sofie ist Mitgründerin und CEO der Magu CBD GmbH, eine der bewegtesten Gründungen in den letzten Jahren in Österreich. CBD ist ein Stoff, der aus der Cannabispflanze gewonnen wird. Aus diesem Grund stößt das Start-Up immer wieder auf Vorurteile und rechtliche Schranken. So ist es sicherlich verständlich, dass bereits vor der Gründung das erste Geld für eine Rechtsberatung gezahlt werden musste. Um Ängste zu nehmen und Akzeptanz für CBD-Produkte zu schaffen, ist Sofie Sagmeister genau die richtige für das Magu-Gründerteam, da sie durch ihr Studium in „Publizistik- und Kommunikationswissenschaft“ an der Universität Wien eine echte Expertin auf dem Gebiet ist. Wir sprechen mit ihr über den Anbau und den Verkauf von CBD, worin Magu sich von anderen Gründungen unterscheidet und wie sich Gründerinnen verhalten können, um sich besser gegenüber ihren männlichen Kollegen zu behaupten. #Special: Mit dem eigens für unsere HörerInnen generierten Rabattcode FOUNDress20 bekommt ihr 20% Rabatt auf alle MAGU und MAWU Produkte bei einer Bestellung im Onlineshop!

Wenn wir über Design nachdenken, geht es oft um “Form follows function”. Das Thema Schönheit scheint dabei schwer greifbar zu sein – geht es um Geschmacksfragen, Regeln, Haltung, Zeitlosigkeit oder Zeitgeist?

For episode 08, we sit down with designer Mikey Kelly for his take on what makes a design practice extend beyond commercial boundaries. Mikey is a freelance graphic and motion designer currently based in LA. He is easily inspired and enjoys making personal work that draws interesting connections between the physical and digital world. Professionally, he has had the opportunity to work with some great studios, including Bureau Christopher Knowles, Sagmeister & Walsh, &Walsh, SOME DAYS, and Doubleday & Cartwright. Mikey has a passion for experimentation and loves learning new techniques and ways of thinking from his bosses and peers. We hope you enjoy learning what motivates his work! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/practise-makes-practice/support

BGBS BONUS 057: Jay Ferracane | Storytellers are Bullsh*tBaby Got Backstory host Marc Gutman partners up with good friend and past guest Jay Ferracane on a special bonus episode about the complexity of defining yourself as a storyteller based on the video, You Are Not a Storyteller by Stefan Sagmeister. Want to see it on video?Quotes[10:26] There is a fallacy that people think, “I have a conversation with you and I come back a week later, and you give me this thing that will be on a gas station, billboard, or on a wall.” And to me, it's iterative. It's a narrative. And that was the only thing I can start to think of why we've gotten into this thing called storytelling, because we're trying to let people know that it's not completely defined. And it's going to be a journey. [13:28] What is the function of design? A lot of times it's to communicate. It's not to be seen, it's not to be noticed, but it's to communicate. It has a very important job, but is that storytelling? Is wayfinding, storytelling? [14:58] I don't think even all stories have reasons, because sometimes they can be whimsical, right? Maybe that is the reason. [18:26] I think even we get conflated a bit when as branders and marketers we say, “Okay, well, it's the sum of all these parts, it's your visual, it's your tagline, it's your copy on your website. It's all this and then now that's your story.” But is it? [19:13] The cool thing about building a brand for me and developing the branding is that all those signals, all that stuff gets set up so that those stories can happen in there. But that's all the people interacting with it. So if anyone is a storyteller in a brand, it's usually the people that support the brand. It would almost be the customer, right? It's pretty meta, actually. [19:49] It's the external world. You can tell all the stories you want about yourself, but it doesn't really matter what you think. It's what everyone thinks about yourself.

Because we're trying to let people know that it's not completely defined and it's going to be a journey. And so let's call it a story and follow us on this journey or this story. I don't know that—I've been dwelling on that actually quite a bit in the last week or so because, well, you and I both know the reality of making anything is never airdrop it into your clients lap, at least it's not in my world. It's a lot of back and forth and and the story gets written together, if anything, but to me I've always wondered is, has storytelling become this thing because people are trying to explain like, you're gonna have to get involved in a narrative? I don't know. Maybe that's where it comes from. Marc Gutman 0:48 Podcasting from Boulder, Colorado. This is the Baby Got Backstory Podcast, where we dive into the story behind the story of today's most inspiring storytellers, creators and entrepreneurs. I like big backstories and I cannot lie. I am your host, Marc Gutman. Hey, I'm Marc Gutman, and today is a little bit of a bonus episode of Baby Got Backstory. My good friend, Jay Ferracane and I talk a lot about different branding topics, marketing topics all offline when we're just hanging out. And one of the things that we got written a lot about was storytelling, and kind of this craze about what's happening with storytelling, and everyone's calling themselves a storyteller. And then Jay turned me on to this amazing video about two minutes. And we're gonna link to the audio in this episode from a famous designer named Stefan Sagmeister. And after that little video, and Stefan sets the stage, Jay and I talk about what it means to be a storyteller. And I hope you liked this episode. It's a little bit of a bonus talking about a topic that's near and dear to my heart. I am here with Jay Ferracane celebrated designer, creative and all around awesome dude. And recently, Jay and I were doing some work together and Jay turned me on to this idea or this this video of Stefan Sagmeister that's titled You Are Not a Storyteller. Before we get into that, because I just I love this video, we're gonna watch it and then talk about it cuz I think it's really relevant, two minutes of extreme relevance, Jay, who is Stefan Sagmeister? Because I don't even know like I, I watched this video and I'm like, Who is this guy? Jay Ferracane 2:41 Well, Stefan Sagmeister is is a designer, I think Austrian born worked out in New York for years. But I think his real claim to fame was that he kind of made designers realize every once in a while that you should take some time for yourself. So he used to do these, these sabbaticals. And then for like a year, he would just do work that tried to make him happy and resulted in like a body of work about being happy. But his work was really widely regarded. I think he's won like a Grammy for some, you know, album design stuff. And I was always appreciative of his design even. And I've known about him for a really long time. You know, he I think he's in the the world of like, the pentagrams, and stuff like that of the world. But Stefan Sagmeister, and his partner, Jessica Walsh, who now runs her own outfit, she still continues, but I think Stefan does more of this kind of like, personal work kind of stuff. But pre that that was this video that I was sharing with you. Because, I mean, we've all heard it in conversations that, you know, everyone wants to be a storyteller. And, you know, what's that really mean? And should you say it, and I look at myself as such a, I don't know, like a tradesperson in design that. I've never considered myself a storyteller but it did me a stroke, it struck a chord with me and why people say that, and a lot of times, I think as a designer, my job is to unpack what people are really trying to say, or what's the reason behind that. And I have some thoughts on why people get into the storytelling, if they use storytelling as a way to describe their process or what they're attempting to do. So. Marc Gutman 4:11 Yeah, it's such an interesting topic to me. I mean, remember, several years ago, you'd say you're a storyteller, and people thought that was all cool. And they'd be like, tell me about that. And, and, and it meant different things. And it still does to different people. But now it's like, literally, I think every single website I hit says, We are storytellers, everybody's Instagram says I'm a storyteller, and everyone wants to be a storyteller. And I think there's a lot of confusion around storytelling. And it's just an interesting topic to me. I don't know if I've landed I firmly believe that as—the way we communicate as humans is through stories, does that make everyone a storyteller? Especially when it comes to business, right? Like, is everyone a storyteller? And so what I want to do is I want to go ahead and share this video. It's two minutes, and we'll go ahead and watch it together. And then we can talk about it. Jay Ferracane 5:02 Sure. Stefan Sagmeister 5:09 Hi, my name is Stefan sagmeister, a Austrian graphic designer who lives in New York City. I'm actually quite critical of the storytelling thing. I think that the older storytellers are not storytelling. Recently, I read an interview with somebody who designs rollercoasters, and he referred to himself as a storyteller. No fuckhead you are not a storyteller. You're a rollercoaster designer. And that's fantastic and more power to you, but why would you want to be a storyteller if you design rollercoasters? Or if you have storytelling that the story that you tell is bullshit. It's like this little Itsy Bitsy little thing. Yes, you go through the space and guess you see other spaceships and yes, that's the story? That's a fucking bullshit story. That's boring. People who actually tell stories, meaning people who write novels and make feature films don't see themselves as storytellers it's all the people who are not storytellers, who kind of for strange reasons, because it's in the air, suddenly, now want to be storytellers. There is this fallacy out there. I don't think that I fell in fell for it. But somehow, maybe unconsciously I did, you know that you sort of feel “I've seen a lot of films, so I must be able to do one.” And of course, this is the most stupid thought ever, you know, it's like, “Oh, I've watched the Philharmonic. That's why I am a virtuoso violin player.” You know, I'm not, even though I've watched a lot of philharmonic concerts, I think by now in our space, meaning in the space of design, it sort of took on the mantle of bullshit. You know, now everybody's a storyteller. Marc Gutman 7:04 Just letting it play out there a little bit, so we can give proper credit to those that published it. But Wow, carries on the mantle of bullshit. Jay Ferracane 7:16 So much to unpack right? Marc Gutman 7:18 So much to unpack. So the mantle of bullshit. I mean, I was giggling and laughing during that, and I certainly saw that you were I mean, like, What are your first thoughts is like, is— Jay Ferracane 7:27 Well, I remember the first time I saw it, number one, you know, I can't pull off the sport coat. And, and, and and impression like he was and I was so genuinely entertained by the fact that he was being so honest, and calling out people on their stuff. And I guess where I came back to, when I when I first sat with it, I thought I probably the first time I saw it just really just thought it was funny. And like, man, did he wake up and have some shitty coffee or something that morning? And, and then, you know, the more I thought about it, and I saw, I think I saw that thing years ago. And and but I've thought about a lot since then. And I've tried to figure out, you know, why? Why has the industry taken on this mantle of, of bullshit? Number one, there's so many, I think there's so many options for clients out there today, that everyone's got to wrap themselves up in something, right, we all kind of do that take on a persona or two. But I think that this storytellers thing was a phenomenon that came out of not unlike, like, I purposely went against the grain when people were there. For some reason, there was this weird fear of like calling yourself a designer, I'm a graphic designer, that's what I was formally trained to do. And I think that makes me a pretty capable communicator. But it does give me a position of where I enter communication from. And I think storytelling maybe puts this this number one, it puts a bigger umbrella on it and allows people to be more capable, or at least position themselves that they are more capable, because they don't have to really describe what their entry point is and where they're coming from. But to the point of, you know, when he was saying, this, this fact about like, I can, you know, if I watch an opera, am I a virtuoso? there is so much information out there in education today that you can watch a video and go out and tell people, you know, something. So I think that what he was probably sensing was some frustration and i would i wonder, actually, how, how close this was to him thinking about, you know, leaving professional practice, because he maybe he was just like fed up at that point. Because that dude, and his outfit did really just great, creative, very original, graphic design. And, you know, maybe he was just, like, frustrated at a point like, I'm not going to be, you know, shielded about this anymore. The more I thought about it, though, and it was funny because you and I have talked a little bit about this and the phenomena of and there are some outfits that work this way, but the phenomenon that work, like a project is something that might have been called the story to be told. You know, in the Stefan Sagmeister, I hate you world. I think there's this notion to that a lot of people think that the project is this, it's dropped on the table, and this is one thing I've been thinking a lot about knowing you and I were going to get together and talk about this, but does this when you start to say, Hey I'm a storyteller, Is that a way to prepare people for the reality of a design process? And I call it a design process, going through a logo, there is a fallacy that people think I have a conversation with you and I come back a week later, and you give me this thing that will be on a gas station, billboard or on a wall. And to me, it's iterative. It's a narrative. And that was the only thing I can start to think of. Is that why we've gotten into this thing called storytelling, because we're trying to let people know that it's not completely defined. And it's going to be a journey. And so let's call it a story and follow us on this journey or this story. I don't know that I've been dwelling on that actually quite a bit in the last week or so. Because, well, you and I both know, the reality of making anything is never airdrop it into your clients lap. At least it's not in my world. It's a lot of back and forth. And, and the story gets written together, if anything, but to me, I've always wondered is has storytelling become this thing? Because people are trying to explain, like, you're gonna have to get involved in a narrative. I don't know. Maybe that's where it comes from. But, yeah. Marc Gutman 11:20 Yeah, it's, it's so I mean, so much to unpack on top of your unpacking. Right? Like, there's, you know, what resonates for me out of that so much as when he talks about his Hey I go to the Philharmonic, and does that mean I can be, you know, a great violin player? Because very, you know, early in my career, I was a story editor in the movie business and a core part of that is just taking in scripts. And I could never understand why everybody thought they had a story worth telling. Everyone thought that their life story was worthy of a movie. I think it's primarily because of what Stefan Sagmeister says is that now went to the movies, they get it, they're like, Hey, I can make this into a movie. And I was like, very clearly, no. No one, like, not a single one that came in was worth reading. They weren't interesting to me. And much like a classic pianist or something like that I was trained in classic cinematic storytelling, which means that there's a three act structure beginning middle and an end, a likeable, or at least, intriguing hero that has obstacles in their way and has to move from something they want towards something they need, all these things. It has a very strict definition. And I remember when I got into branding and marketing, and I had the same reaction as Sagmeister, I was like, This is crazy. Everyone's calling themselves a storyteller. These are not stories, and I was really myopic on my definition of story. Now I've since come off that and I learned, I've learned that storytelling has this different sort of definition. And I think, when I heard you speaking, that's really what I started kind of going through, like, what are these definitions of story versus storytelling versus narrative? I mean, is the roller coaster designer really trying to tell a story? Are they trying to communicate, communicate anything other than thrill and excitement? And, you know, things like that? So? Yeah, I mean, and you and I have had this conversation offline, so much about just what is the purpose? What is the job? What is the function of design, and a lot of times it's to communicate, and it's not to be seen, it's not to be noticed, but it's to communicate as a very important job. It is that storytelling? like is Wayfinding storytelling? Jay Ferracane 13:44 Right. Marc Gutman 13:45 You know, like, all the great Helvetica stuff we love from, you know, the New York subway and I mean, and then recent MTA rebrand, I mean, that stuff is like that telling a story? Is that storytelling? Jay Ferracane 13:58 And and that's, that's totally where I think it gets it screwed up. And not to belabor the point about titles, but like, you know, storytellers, if that's going to be the thing that somebody wants to put a label on him, I do think it comes back to this thing that, you know, design is about—it's, it's a what, yeah, I've told you this quote that if you can design a city, you can design a spoon, or if you can design a spoon, you can design a city, meaning like, hey, once you understand that, that your job is is to do this thing. It doesn't matter what medium it gets put into it. And still to this day, it kind of trips me up to hear a designer say I'm a UI designer. So okay, so if your friend said, Hey, I need a T shirt, you wouldn't make a T shirt? You know? Like, I'm not a T shirt designer, but I designed lots of T shirts. And I'm a graphic designer I've done to design a ton of UI and I poked my own eye out through my glasses if I had to only design UI and to me, I guess it comes back to this notion that design's job is to just put reason into things. And I don't think even all stories have really because sometimes they can be whimsical, right? Maybe that is the reason. But I remember seeing this talk if we're going to kind of Sagmeister was an early design hero of mine and so was David Carson. And I saw David Carson do a talk once about it was, oh, he showed this layout he did for a conference he got asked to attend, it was called the bravery of design or something like that. And it was the image was his father, who was a test pilot getting into an aircraft. And he goes, and he basically put that up, because he goes, what we do isn't dangerous. He goes, unless I'm designing like, pharmaceutical packaging, or something where if somebody reads it wrong, there's a problem, right? And he was saying that that's fucking dangerous. And he pointed at his, you know, his dad in the 60s, or whenever it was getting into a, into an aircraft. And, and I do, I just think that there's something that I think people feel like they need to inflate around what it is they're really doing. And that's why I really do look at what I do, it's much more like a trade than it is art, for sure. And even the way I approach it, it's like, I'm going to show you some things, but you're going to react to them, and then I'm going to catalyze those back into it so it becomes the things you need it to be. It's not about me. And so a lot of times storytelling is is like, your take on something to it has a very emotional bent. And, you know, that's a major difference between art and design is that you know, art is really about you trying to express some personal feeling or emotion where design should really really—it's it can have expression in it, but it's really about communicating ideas or information. And so storytelling does, it gets cloudy, but maybe it is a safety mechanism for people to just shield up like, Hey, I don't–I was a marketing manager a long time ago, but all of a sudden, here I am, you know, trying to help you rebuild your brand. And if I tell you that where I came from, that's it. That's a hard entry point, right? Marc Gutman 16:55 This episode brought to you by Wildstory. Wait, isn't that your company? It is. And without the generous support of wild story, this show would not be possible. A brand isn't a logo or a tagline. or even your product or a brand is a person's gut feeling about a product service or company. It's what people say about you, when you're not in the room. Wildstory helps progressive founders and savvy marketers build purpose driven brands that connect their business goals with the customers they want to serve. So that both the business and the customer needs are met. This results in crazy, happy, loyal customers that purchase again and again. And this is great for business. That sounds like something you and your team might want to learn more about, reach out @ www.wildstory.com. And we'd be happy to tell you more. Now back to our show. And you and I have collaborated recently on a bunch of identities. I mean, those are really stories. You know, when I think about them, they're like, you know, there's we want certain emotions, we want you to think of certain categories. We want you to see this and say, Okay, this is a tool brand, for example. We're not really telling stories within that work, and I wouldn't, and I think that's okay, like, we don't have to like that's not the intention or the purpose. And I think even we get conflated a bit when as branders and marketers we say, Okay, well, it's the sum of all these parts, it's your visual, it's your tagline. It's, you know, your, you know, your copy on your website, it's, it's all these and then now your that's your story, you know, but like, is it? Jay Ferracane 18:45 I think it's and it's funny, too, because one thing that I try and get really clear with my clients that when I first start working with them is is that there's a difference between branding and brand. So brand and branding are two totally separate things. Brand is the promise you want to you know, bring to the world. Branding is the signals that get them there. And you know, in this in this case of like, you know, when we work on identity and stuff like that, I think we're we're way more in the signal building camp. Because the I that the cool thing about building a brand for me and developing the branding that will do that is that all those signals, all that stuff gets set up so that the stories can happen in there. But that's all the people interacting with it. So if anyone this is interesting that we've talked this out a little bit, but if anyone is a storyteller and a brand, it's usually the people that support the brand, it would almost be the customer, right? It's pretty meta, actually. Marc Gutman 19:40 So there's the old adage, a brand isn't what you say it is. It's what they say it is. And I think that so Jay Ferracane 19:45 Then who's the storyteller in that? Marc Gutman 19:47 Yeah, the customer, right? It's the external world. I mean, you know, you can, it's kind of like, you know, you can tell all the stories you want about yourself, but it doesn't really matter. Jay Ferracane 19:57 Right. Marc Gutman 19:58 That's what everyone thinks, you know, about yourself. Jay Ferracane 20:01 Yeah, no. And that's it's totally Yeah. Because I, yeah, you know, for along the line of storytellers is a word that I never got, and it's my brushes with the advertising world is, is a lot of times, people who make stuff just generally get thrown into this category as creatives. And I think that's kind of a weird label too, because I think that an art director is a, it's a role and a skill set that is different than a designer sometimes or graphic designer, right. And it could be different than a set designer, and it could be different than, and so but in certain worlds, all of that gets stuffed in too. And so I think whenever these labels come out, it's just a way, it's just a way for people to soften, or create a softer landing place for you to understand where you come from. And well, you know, my, my, my love of music and the background and the things that I grew up around was like early punk rock, especially DC kind of stuff. And in those days, you didn't go to the, you didn't even go to tower, you would have friends that gave you like cassettes that were made off of cassettes that were made off of two other cassettes. And I remember every once while people would like hold the microphone to like the TV and record stuff into it, I still, to this day, don't know where this soundbite came, but it's this very posture-y kind of voice it was in between one of the songs that was on this mixtape given to me. And the guy says, I have news for the world. And he says new wave is dead. And it says new wave is just a way of saying that you like any names, all these like sub genres of music that was extremely not popular at that point. And then he ended it with like, these categorizations of all these music types, that people wedged them under a new wave. And he said, it's because you don't want to get kicked out with a party because people won't give you drugs anymore. And so like, but it was kind of funny, because if I if I think about that, that's probably this defense mechanism that all humans are do a lot. They they put some falsehood around themselves, or at least a softening device. So that either you can't really assign what it is and or you may be reassign it, and it's it's a funny, it's a funny thing. And and I think that's that's, you know, not me ever asking, you know, Stefan about this, but like, I would bet his intent is is call it what it would call it what it is, and just be authentic about it. Because to me, that's the best form of graphic design and is when you can, like, make the brand with the things that it really is. And that's not necessarily storytelling. To me. That's this very, we were just talking about this before this call started ingredients and parts. Marc Gutman 22:40 Yeah, totally. And like, it's just, it seems like this catch all, you know, being a storyteller, this thing that is just like, you don't know how to describe yourself, you don't know what it is you think, you know, and I just recently posted on Instagram a carousel that was called stop copying your competitors. And and it's because we all don't know, you know what to say about ourselves. And we don't know how to differentiate, we don't know what category we want to be special. Right? And, and I'm no different. I want to be special, but we're not, you know, we need to understand— Jay Ferracane 23:13 You're special! Marc Gutman 23:14 Oh, Go on Go on. But you have this idea that like everyone's a storyteller is just crazy to me. And, and I do think I think the roller coaster example that he uses is of the extreme, but I think it comes into all sorts of things like you know, even you know, there's a lot of there's a lot of functions in marketing today where you know, people are claiming to be storytellers like in paid media. You're not a storyteller. You're an advertiser, you know? Jay Ferracane 23:40 Yeah, and that's fine, though. That is great Marc Gutman 23:42 And you should—Yeah, and you know and sometimes you use storytelling as a mechanism or a tool to to get your advertising across, but that doesn't make you a storyteller per se and I just think it's interesting that we all and it's in it's become this thing that like, like people just want to be that like it's like we use that as our brand and it's almost become that I think you might even be in the person that sent me the bland book which was a mock site of like what branding and and and all these agencies have become and storyteller would be front and center right there you know, right on the—we are visionary storytellers looking to change the world you know one brand at a time. Jay Ferracane 24:24 Well and i think that's that's why, let's just call it that well “the creatives” to use a big loose term the creative industry every you know, so often has to kind of go find its new catch all phrase to that everyone can kind of like over the next five years reassigns themselves to and then we feel that we shed that again and you become something else. But it is it just an interesting phenomenon that people get into these traps where they're like I'm worried about telling you what I am and in the in the roller coaster guys sense. It I found myself drifting off thinking about that. That, you know, like maybe what he does is so complex that if he told somebody what he really did, you know, maybe it's more of a mathematician than anything because you got to figure out a lot of gravity shit, I bet. And they're right. You know, it's like gravity and like, what if there's a fat guy in a little guy in the in the car together? What's that gonna do to the story? Like, Marc Gutman 25:19 How hard is it to say I'm a kick ass roller coasters? Like, like, like, like, everyone understands that. Jay Ferracane 25:25 But it are people comfortable doing that, too? Like, I think that's that's what it comes down to. So I don't know, it has to be something about the the palatability of the world you're trying to market to. Oh, man, this is resonating. People want to hear story. So I'm going to be set tell people I'm that, right. So yeah, it's, I don't know, I guess it was a delight, especially when I saw that because I think I personally would just really rather designers be designers and communicators. That's that's probably the better term. I would rather people say I'm a communicator than a storyteller because that is kind of what we do. I think it's, it can be super boring shit sometimes and not that there's not boring stories, but at least it has less of a mantle around it too less of a mantle of bullshit. And he has that. That [inaudible] and like, [inaudible]. Like there was a [inaudible] in there for a second. Marc Gutman 26:21 Angry. Yeah, you know? Jay Ferracane 26:23 Yeah. Marc Gutman 26:23 I love it. Well, Jay, this was awesome. I just enjoyed talking about this topic with you. It's it fascinates me. And like I said, Thank you for turning me on to that video. Like kind of blew my mind and was just really cool to chat about it. Jay Ferracane 26:37 No, I am, I'm the king of derailing your day with Oh, yeah, on that topic here. Watch these six videos, you know me. So you're welcome. And I'm glad to continue to distract you on a daily basis. Marc Gutman 26:48 Thank you. I'm looking forward to my next distraction. And that is Jay Ferracane. And that was us talking about storytelling, all based on the Stefan Sagmeister video. I love that he kind of goes on that rant about someone who designs roller coasters as a storyteller, but I think you'll agree it's become really, really confusing.

It’s hard to say what iconic graphic designer and typographer, Stefan Sagmeister, is most known for. His multi-decade career was first formed as the New York-based Sagmeister INC. in 1993 and went on to become Sagmeister & Walsh in 2012. Some of his best-known work includes iconic album covers and posters for artists like The Rolling Stones, the Talking Heads, and more--some of which went on to receive Grammies, cementing him as an epochal visual artist of our time. His intimate self-portrait captured in “The Happy Film” turns himself into a deeply self-reflective design project, exploring questions like--can I redesign my personality to become a better person? Or, perhaps for his advocacy on the power of time off and the year-long sabbatical he takes every seven years. A practice he ultimately credits for breathing new life and perspective into his work. But what does this approach to design have to do with cities? Well, everything. He joined Martin Barry in a conversation discussing his Austrian roots, his influences from different cities, and happiness as related to the importance of beauty as a utility for any properly functioning building, space, or city. Design and the City is a podcast produced by reSITE about the ways we can use design to make cities more livable and lovable. reSITE is a global non-profit and platform connecting people and ideas to improve the urban environment.

Back from our summer break (sort of) with a bang! Learn about the weird and wacky world of cannabis regulation in Austria from one of the country's pioneers in CBD.

Ten years ago, the Austrian-born, New York–based graphic designer Stefan Sagmeister—famous for his attention-grabbing exhibitions, posters, and books, as well as for his impeccable album covers for bands like The Rolling Stones, OK Go, and Aerosmith—walked onto the stage at the TED Global conference in Oxford, England. There to present his findings about the power of time off, he spoke specifically about the virtues and values, personal and professional, of taking a sabbatical every seven years, something he started to do in 2000 and has continued to practice since. Coming in the midst of the Great Recession, the talk resonated widely: its resulting video has been watched more than three million times. Clearly, Sagmeister was, and is, onto something. Even if it’s something most people can only dream about. Since then, Sagmeister has gone on yet another sabbatical—his third, in 2016—this time stopping in Mexico City, Tokyo, and the town of Schwarzenberg, Austria, over the course of a year. (For his first sabbatical, he was in New York City; for his second, Bali.) On this episode of Time Sensitive, the 56-year-old looks back, with a fuller-picture view, at his three periods of time off. Digging in to how the sabbaticals created opportunities for incubating ideas that became two massive multi-year undertakings—one a project on happiness, the other on beauty—Sagmeister shares with Spencer Bailey how certain things have changed for his practice since that TED Talk a decade ago. In 2012, he joined forces with Jessica Walsh; their firm, Sagmeister & Walsh, now operates in a different, slightly larger office than the one he was in, and having another partner at the firm has shifted how things run overall. Still, Sagmeister’s signature approach to design remains as exuberant as ever. For clients including the duffel-bag brand Baboon, the Jewish Museum, and the Miami advertising agency Gut, the firm continues to produce inventive and playful work.

Im Rahmen eines Spryker Partnerevents in der letzten Woche in Bregenz, hatte ich die Möglichkeit den "Luxus" Modehändler Clemens Sagmeister zu seinen Erfahrungen mit Farfetch & Co. zu befragen. Er verkauft in mehreren Filialen um den Bodensee und erklärt mittlerweile 20% seines Umsatzes über E-Commerce, was er wiederum 100% über Farfetch abwickelt. Warum er das tut, warum er keinen eigenen Onlineshop hat und was er in Zukunft noch tun muss, um nicht von Amazon & Co. erdrückt zu werden, erklärt er im Podcast.

Eugene wants to talk about the product line Sorry I Have No Filter launched by Sagmeister & Walsh to raise money for its not-for-profit Ladies, Wine & Design.

Charis is interested in an exhibition at the Vitra Design Museum called “Night Fever” that surveys night clubs in history and how they were important places for culture to grow.

This episode was recorded late 2017 on the morning after Leta Sobierajski and Wade Jeffree's AGDA talk in Sydney, just after the solar eclipse – which was pretty pointless in Australia, as we couldn’t see it. Still, that didn’t stop us having a lively and far reaching conversation about the couple, being both married in life and work. Discovering they are both huge Anime fans led us down a dark and nerdy path, being that Flyn and Matt are also fans. Thankfully (for you) we’ve cut a lot of that. We also spoke a lot about influences, specifically Arakawa and Madeline Gins, who Leta and Wade have loved for a long time, and obviously covered Wade’s time with Sagmeister & Walsh. Finally we spoke about Ikko Ikko, and the fact it has nothing to do with the 15th Century uprising in Japan.

This episode is all about the distinction between working individually and working collaboratively. Gitamba Saila-Ngita and Meg Lewis join us for a discussion where we talk about our preferred work environments, the difference between design education and practicing design professionally, and conflict resolution amongst coworkers and clients. When should we compromise and when should we stand up for our ourselves?

Our first interview for Typeradio was with Stefan Sagmeister in 2004. Now five years later we look back and ask him what changed in the last years. Did he acquire new rituals in the meantime? We talk about his second sabbatical year in Bali. And just six weeks after coming back to New York, we discuss the impact of the crisis and elections in the United States. He talks to us about whether he likes being famous, how to handle it and the advantages along with it. We also look forward and talk about future projects and how he’s not quite sure yet if he would like to be remembered… Recorded at the Integrated 2009 conference in Antwerp, Belgium.
