Walker typemaker interviewed: The Serif runs an interesting Q&A, comprised of reader-submitted questions, with Eric Olson, former Walker designer and the typographer behind the Walker’s identity system, Walker Expanded.
Olson’s pet project: Sure, Eric’s created typefaces used by the Walker, NBC, and others, but what merits a Centerpoints blurb of its own? Pictures of his dog. Since 2003, Olson and his partner, Nicole Dotin, have been chronicling life with Charlie, their reed-thin Italian Greyhound.
Wittig’s flares: Walker photographer Cameron Wittig, has a pretty prolific freelance and fine-art practice outside his work here, as i heart photograph notices. Photoblogger Laurel points out Cameron’s haunting lens flare series, but be sure to check out the rest of his work, too.
Best banter: The Onion, on the 15 masters of on-stage banter. Now, with David Lee Roth.
