No, this is not The Onion, this is a real Time cover honoring a great designer with an atrocious design. I get the concept, but it just looks like hell. At any rate, it’s time for another one of those Pecha Kucha Nights where designers and fans can get together and meet and share, and drink. The evening begins with presenters who are allowed to discuss 20 slides, 20 seconds per slide; and then they buy 20 people 20 drinks. No I made that last part up. For information on becoming a presenter (your 400 seconds of fame!) go here. The deadline for this Wednesday may have passed, but it looks like this is going to be a monthly event.
Free, 7:20pm, Wednesday, June 10, Local 121, 121 Washington Street
Raymond Loewy was definitely one of the greatest designers of the 20th century!
