Neon Moiré Show - Editor's Picks

Five weeks ago I started to record the Editor's Picks. They are short 1-minute recordings, highlighting events that take place this week. You can listen and subscribe to them in your favorite podcast app, like Apple Podcast, Overcast, or Spotify.

The podcast feed has an archive of interviews about creating, organizing, and speaking at design-driven conferences. In every episode, I talk with designers, writers, technologists, curators, and those that operate between these fields about how writing, curating, and speaking influence their practice and the design profession at large.
