Ola!, Noticed the smileys?? You can imagine me (and all other youtube viewers) are both surprised AND amused that a strong conceptual design collective of your caliber would feature in such a lightweight promoclip. There's no need for you to get so insulting. Be prepared for usercomments when you publicly post something. If this short clip states your reputation in a wrong way, then post an extended version instead. I must say I can hardly wait to see the whole documentary. relax & peace out.

Based on the fact that you scrutinize my words (and appearance) in a very unfair way, without taking into consideration that my words were indeed heavily edited.

I do have amazing students. Although, to be honest, in the clip I wasn't talking about my students, but about ourselves as students: "All that hunting for the next typeface every time, it took a lot of energy, and I can still remember, as students, that we were really disappointed because, you wanted to use a certain typeface..." etc. etc.

Point is, you talk for 3 hrs, which is then compressed into 2 minutes. So what remains are some out-of-context remarks, and a stupid joke towards the end, that suddenly becomes the crux of the interview. But that's how these things work, and I'm not complaining. The documentary as a whole looks great. I always assumed that all viewers understand that docs work that way. But I guess there are always a few ignorant ones.

subversive sides of modernism?... consistent subcultures? He looks quite nervous while talking. I'm still wandering what he's trying to say: Everybody's useing helvetica? ;P

What's wrong with their website?

Experimental Jetset should put a little more effort into their website. And, if they stole their name from Sonic Youth's "Experimental Jetset, Trash and No Star," then they should put a little more effort into their name, too.
