“As Matt Haber observed last week, the cover of Radar’s September/October issue was art directed by George Lois, the advertising genius who created dozens of classic Esquire covers between 1962 and 1972. The new Radar cover is a parody of a Lois Esquire creation that caused a big controversy in early 1968. Here’s what no one’s noticed yet: For some time now, George Lois has been happily recycling his old Esquire covers for a bunch of other magazines. No fewer than four are on the newsstand right now, including Radar.”

“Q: What are the biggest changes you’ve seen in the design industry during your career? What do you interpret from those changes? A: The biggest change has been the interest in design reading and writing that came from blogs, Emigre’s switch to pocketbook format and more blogs. I think this is a reaction to the emphasis on ‘doing’ of design and we have to come to a moment where we all want to talk about what we do. And, inevitably, we will go back to ‘doing’ soon.”

“Ever since Alan Cooper’s 1999 book ‘The Inmates are Running The Asylum’ was published, everyone is mad for personas. They’ve permeated the highest and deepest levels of organizations, and have become a standard interaction design tool. Whole projects are now built around creating them, and there’s a feeling that once you get a half dozen or so, your design problems will be solved. Presumably, your personas solve them for you.”
