So Long, Everyone!

January 2nd, 2012 | by Nate Voss

“ ‘If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?’ Whenever the answer has been ‘No’ for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.”    — Steve Jobs

The tweet here is probably something along the lines of “I’m hanging up my podcasting spurs.” Of course, brevity has never really been a strong suit of mine, so I’ll elaborate below. But if you just want the quick hit, there it is. These old spurs, I am a’ hangin’ them up.

The Reflex Blue Show, Season 4, Episode 10: I Have an Inkling for CS5.5

September 8th, 2011 | by Nate Voss
Posted In: The Reflex Blue Show

This week’s show — new and recorded live while the microphones were on — is an operatic examination of Things. We spend a slight amount of time recapping our recappings of HOWlive twenty-eleven (presumably for the final time); the finer points of local AIGA awards shows; a magical pen that records your drawings and turns them into more drawings; finally begin to delve into Adobe Creative Suite Five Period Five (a conversation will continue, dear friends, as we endeavor to uncover its dark, dark secrets); and do a little, tiny bit of dribbbling. Maybe more?

The Reflex Blue Show, Season 4, Episode 2: Justin Ahrens? Okay…

June 7th, 2011 | by Nate Voss
Posted In: The Reflex Blue Show

Justin Ahrens, who you know and love (?) if you have listened to this show for any amount of time, joins us yet again and this time we beat some information out of him about actual paying work. Dude’s always helping people, changing the world and making lives better, and frankly we’re tired of hearing about it. So we talk about some real billable, paying work.

We also dig into what he’s cooking for the HOW Design Live show in just a few weeks, and Jon Cryer‘s illustrious movie career. And scotch. LISTEN! LISTEN!

The Reflex Blue Show Season Three Finale: The Twitter Show!

March 10th, 2011 | by Nate Voss
Posted In: The Reflex Blue Show

Our last show of 2010! In 2011!

We take questions from the field of Twitter (follow the site on @36point, Nate @vossome, and Donovan @eleven19), and then, we talk about them! It’s a killer end to the season, really. It at least gave me an excuse to turn Tron Girl there into InDesign Tron Girl. Which I love.

So listen up!
