Valentine’s Day with Dyana : The Reflex Blue Show #85
February 14th, 2012 |Posted In: The Reflex Blue Show
Last Monday it was cold here in Omaha. We had half a foot of snow on the ground, and wait, same thing today, great. But what really got us excited to work was speaking with Dyana Valentine.
We covered a number of things between the creative bubble, not being sorry (at Trader Joe’s anyway, feel free to be sorry at Wally World), and speaking at 3 of the 4 HOW Live conferences in Boston this June (If 2 out of 3 ain’t bad, then Dyana is doing great).
Joined by co-host Ben Lueders, we bring you Dyana Valentine on Valentine’s Day. Enjoy.
Also, we bring (and we put in a chapter marker, so you can skip right to it if you prefer) what we hope will be a fairly regular feature through the rest of season 5, inspirational short tidbits from Dyana we’re calling “Dyana’s Valentine Note”.

Allan Haley Interview : The Reflex Blue Show #84
January 24th, 2012 |Posted In: The Reflex Blue Show
Type is one of those elements that I use it every day, I could not do my job without, and yet as much as I know about it, there is even more that I do not know. That’s why I find it such a great opportunity to speak with guests like Allan Haley of Monotype Imaging. Allan knows more about letters than I ever will, so it was great to have him on this episode of The Reflex Blue Show.
Joined by co-host Ben Lueders, we talk about Monotype Imaging, web fonts, how to become a type designer and the hardest letter in the English alphabet to design.
We also speak a bit about his 2012 HOW Conference presentation (Allan is one of the speakers) coming this June in Boston.
We’ll be back in two weeks recapping the ads from some football game. See you then!
