Gloria Steinem

This is no simple reform. It really is a revolution. Sex and race because they are easy and visible differences have been the primary ways of organizing human beings into superior and inferior groups and into the cheap labour in which this system still depends. We are talking about a society in which there will be no roles other than those chosen or those earned. We are really talking about humanism.

Who is speaking? 
Gloria SteinemWhy was/is the speech important to society? 
This speech was given at the height of the Women's Movement. Her speech addresses equality for women and other races in America. Why do you feel in is important or interesting? 
This speech is important because of it was given during a critical time for women's rights. The world was a very different place back then and things are better now but still not great so its still relevant today. 
What is the emotion, mood, tone, personality, feeling of the speech?
Uplifting, powerful and makes you think about the true issues of the world. 
What is intonation, emphasis, what is loud, stressed, or soft. Where are there pauses... 
This is hard because she speaks pretty much the same throughout the whole speak. But the most important words are, revolution, superior and inferior groups, chosen, earned and humanism. The last word is really the most important part of all of it. 
What do you FEEL should be loud or soft, long pause or rushed?
"Sex and Race" should be loud, and "orangizing" and "superior and inferior groups", "Society" , " No Rules" and "Chosen or those Earned", lastly "humanism" should be loud. All of these words and lines in quotes make this whole speak important, so they need to be called out. 
How does it make you feel? 
It makes me feel empowered to go out and do something to help the injustices that are still happening today in the world. 
How do imagine that the audience felt? 
I can imagine that the audience felt the same pride I did to go out and support the women's rights movement. Some people probably didn't respond the same way but theres always those people. Could there be another interpretation of the speech?
Someone who doesn't believe in equal rights this speech probably seems like a load of poop. Write/find a short bio, of the person giving the speech.

Verner Panton

He is a Danish designer and architect who was one of the most innovative of all 20th-century designers, exerting a lasting and far-reaching influence through his sculptural designs, some of them playfully futuristic, and the vividly colored works he designed.In 1955 Verner Panton opened a practice of his own in Copenhagen. In the years after, Panton stirred up quite a bit of controversy with his innovative architectural concepts, such as a prefab foldable house, Cardboard House, and a Plastic House. He was active from the 1950s as an interior decorator, exhibition designer, and all-round designer.Verner broke entirely with convention, designing rooms as landscapes in vibrant color tones, sometimes entirely in shades of red, as in the interior in 1958 of "Komigen Kro, a guest house in Langesø on the island of Funen. For this interior,  Panton also designed the "Cone" chair. In 1960 he turned it into the "Heart" chair, which also featured a cone bottom foot, and came up with other variations on the original "Cone" that were all made by Plus-Linje. The unusual way Verner Panton dealt with furnishings and other features of his interiors would become typical of the other interior appointments he designed. His carpet and wallpaper patterns, inspired by Op art, were almost always in vibrant colors. By 1955 Verner Panton had come up with a design for a swing chair made of a single piece of laminated wood, the "S" chair. 

Abbott Miller

Miller hates logos because of the amount of time people spend obsessing over the logo its self when they should be more concerned about how its used. He says that design is about creating narratives, not just beautiful shiny objects. During his life as a designer he went through the digital revolution that is the lap tops and programs that we have today. Design is more talked about today then it was when he was first starting out. Few people did design, or even know what typography was. Now it seems like everyone is a fan of graphic design and its importance. Now graphic design is the face of companies and their success with their branding, when then you had to argue the importance of design to companies. Branding is now something that people obsess about. Miller prefers the word identity opposed to brand, because it sounds more contextual. Branding is so strict to impression and experience, where as identity is an experience, its the company and who it is. People are too worried about the brand when they should be worried about the identity of the company. 

Type 2

The advantages of a multiple column grid are it is more flexible for design, there is a lot more options for placing text and pictures, you rant as limited. A good guideline for how much text fits on one line is between 9 and 12 words but 12 can sometimes be too much to read depending. The baseline grid is used as an underlaying structure that helps guide the vertical spacing of your design.Justified type has a very geometric appearance, created by both the right and left margins being aligned. Ragged type is easier to set, more natural to read, and requires less adjustment to finesse. Rag right settings are more informal, such that the reader usually doesn’t even notice the alignment. Rivers in typography are gaps in typesetting, which appear to run through a paragraph of text, due to a coincidental alignment of spaces. The flow line or clothesline is an imaginary line that aligns horizontally to text and allows for easy readability and flow.Hanging punctuation is when the quotation mark hangs outside the line of the text.Combining typefaces is like making a salad. Start with a small number of elements representing different colors, tastes, and textures. hen mixing typefaces on the same line, designers usually adjust the point size so that the x-heights align. Some different ways to indicate a new paragraph are indents, adding space between paragraphs.

He then spent four years as a part-time designer for the magazine Transworld Skateboarding, which enabled him to experiment. His characteristic chaotic spreads with overlapped photos and mixed and altered type fonts drew both admirers and detractors.In 1989 Carson became art director at the magazine Beach Culture.

Alexey Brodovitch

Alexey Brodovitch is remembered today as the art director of Harper's Bazaar for nearly a quarter of a century.He played a major role in introducing the United States to a radically simplified, “modern” graphic design style. Through his teaching, he created a generation of designers sympathetic to his belief in the primacy of visual freshness and immediacy. Fascinated with photography, he made it the backbone of modern magazine design, and he fostered the development of an expressionistic, almost primal style of picture-taking that became the dominant style of photographic practice in the 1950s.Brodovitch is virtually the model for the modern magazine art director. He did not simply arrange photographs, illustrations and type on the page; he took an active role in conceiving and commissioning all forms of graphic art, and he specialized in discovering and showcasing young and unknown talent.
