Listen "037 • SAJAD AMINI"
Episode Synopsis
Our guest is educator and graphic designer Sajad Amini.
In this episode, Amini speaks with host Christian Solorzano about ethics, the role and responsibility of the graphic designer, and the variety of ways in which language and semiotics come together to create realities that, more often than not, are unexpected.
Amini shares examples that showcase graphic design as both being complicit in problem-solving and problem-making and the importance of making decisions that are value-driven and equitable. We learn about his teaching philosophy and methods for encouraging critical thinking amongst his students and the reason why he believes authenticity and experimentation are crucial within the design process.
