    139. The bad boy of graphic design. (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    Pretty much every article you find online about designer Tibor Kalman describes his story, from Hungarian immigrant to rockstar graphic designer. As if the authors of such articles were afraid of forming an opinion on him or his work. I’d even dare to say Tibor would consider reading one more of those stories unbearably boring.<a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!JJr1!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.

    136. Eclipse things. (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    In my forty-something years across the galaxy, and just before this week, I’ve been very lucky to have experienced three eclipses: two total ones in Mexico City as a child, and a partial one in Spain while at university.
