The Reflex Blue Show, Season 2, Episode 8: HOW Recap
July 2nd, 2009 |Posted In: The Reflex Blue Show
Today we welcome Steve Gordon as our guest to do a complete recap of our experiences from the HOW Conference.
We also spend some time discussing Graphic Design, Referenced by Armin Vit and Bryony Gomez Palacio, and how it may be the best graphic design textbook released since Meggs’, and possibly even better.
And of course, we discuss the office decoration we just got. Things will never be the same around here again.

The Reflex Blue Show HOW Conference Special: DAY TWO
June 25th, 2009 |Posted In: The Reflex Blue Show
The How Conference daily podcasts continue with a slightly shorter episode that is literally bursting at the seams with no more than six guests playing a rousing game of pass-the-mic, including Clint Walkingstick, (eL) Ron Hubbard, a second illustrious appearance by both Kenneth and Jenneth Visocky-O’Grady, U&lc/SpeakUp/BrandNew-man Armin Vit, and Design Goddess Debbie Millman.

The HOW Conference is alive and well, and it you have the right combination of twitter accounts coupled with our amazing coverage, well it’s damn near like you’re there right now. Which I’m not.

If you’re keeping track, this is our 95th 1PT.Rule comic, so as we count down to the über-special occasion of #100, go on back through the catalog and get caught up.
Shoryuken!!
The Reflex Blue Show HOW Conference Special: DAY ONE

Doing it right from Austin, Texas, live from the Conference Center’s 4th Floor — The Reflex Blue Show HOW Conference Special continues!
Day One guests include speakers/authors Jen & Ken Visocky O’Grady, author/speaker/man-about-town Steve Gordon, and Not-Anymore-Speaker/Not-Quite-Author Justin Ahrens (who graces us with a full-show appearance)! It’s all about setting the tone for the conference and covering the pre-conference workshops (sort of), and the lead-up to the conference itself — as it appears on Twitter? Also featuring the mad psyching-out of the O’Gradys vis a vis Armin Vit’s Design History & Practice: Mano a Mano battle royale that is apparently going down like Chinatown Thursday night.
