Now this is a panel discussion that you won’t want to miss:
Handgloves or adhesion
Reading or writing, KABK Den Haag or the University of Reading? It is often said about the two renowned typedesign masters degree programs (and their graduates) that they are rivals. There can be passionate discussions about the best method to draw an S. But is it true that both schools don’t like each other? Must it really be a question of faith which side one takes? What are the characteristics of the programs and in what ways do they differ? Those, and all your other questions, will be answered by two graduates from each school: Veronika Burian, Christoph Dunst, Laura Meseguer and Dan Reynolds.
Taking place at 2pm on Friday, May 21, this panel discussion is up against Niels Meulman: Calligraphy, and lunch. If you were thinking about grabbing a bite to eat at the TYPO next Friday afternoon, think again! Taking place in the TYPO Nest, this thrilling panel will be moderated by Indra Kupferschmid.
Historically, each type]media class visits TYPO Berlin as part of the yearly course’s program; there are sure to be plenty of Dutch partisans in the audience. So, Reading peeps within flying or driving distance of Berlin, you know where you should be next week. Veronika and I might need back up…

I guess this subject will remain a mystery, as we’re all just too busy to really care about each other.
By the way: TYPO is not a part of the t]m program, just every once in a while students are lucky enough to go. Also, you forgot the link to Christoph Dunst’s website.
Thanks for the link to Christoph’s website! I did not not link to him… the links above are to speaker profile pages on the Typo Berlin website. He doesn’t seem to have one yet :-(
It always seemed to me that all type]media students went to TYPO Berlin… this will be my sixth year in a row (boy, does that make me feel old writing that). A few years ago, one student told me that some students had stayed in The Hague because they still had so much work to do.
Will you be here in Berlin next week? How many of your classmates will be coming? I’ve never gotten to know a whole class full of t]m students before, the way I always seem to get to know just about everyone at Reading each year (although when I was in the t]m studio a few years ago, while my MATD class was on its Low Countries trip).
