Since last December, I started the Podcast ‘墨とPath’ (Ink and Path), which focuses on type design, typography and life with several guests, with a Japanese type designer in Adobe, Taisei Yoshida.
We publish each episode every three months, and just two days ago, a new episode with Toshi @tosche_e became available.
Even though we talk in Japanese, please check our website if you are interested:)

TIL that the most recent Firefox will now show the font licensing information in the inspector. Nice!

This week, I saw a post about ChatGPT image generation, saying “art is accessible now.” I’ve been irritated by the stupidity, ever since.

Calling AI image generation “art” is like saying that browsing YouTube is “cinematography” or copy-pasting from a blog post is “writing.”

No, actually, you’re just consuming work made by someone else.

Art is about struggle, learning, journeying, and making something new, yourself.
