I'm heavily inspired by radical print design, particularly of the 70s after the birth of the Xerox, such as Shrew and OZ Magazine as well as protest banners and zines. I love the fast-paced, imperfect, tactile feeling and I try to emulate this through physically editing my work.

Static images don't show motion. You can't inspect real product structure. You don't see how interfaces evolve over time. You rarely understand what actually works in production.
