Speaking at the Cusp Conference - September 16-17, Chicago

DateJun 10, 2009 at 03:49PM Comment2 Comments

I will be speaking at the Cusp Conference, "a conference about the design of everything." The roster in 2008 was amazing, and so far the 2009 lineup looks awesome, including Lynda Barry, Constance Adams, Harmut Esslinger, Shakeela Hassan, among many others. I am honored to be asked to speak at such an energizing conference, and thanks to Dave Mason for inviting me. More on what I'll be speaking on soon. Stay tuned.
