Notes from an interview with Tim Owens – “We Are All Artists” – conducted by Jim Groom.

Keywords: hungry, uncomfortable, mashups, minimalist, noise, children’s books, antique stores, iconography, creative family.

The interview was a fun and insightful piece on design and how we should all think about our relation to design. He went through and described his thoughts about how the DS106 community is incorporating design into their work and how he has had the most success with his projects. The resources he mentions are located on the Week 2 schedule and he briefly describes each one and how he finds it useful. The ones I’ve used have been: noun project, dafont, and kuller. I use dafont a lot for work when creating photoshoped emails for clients. It is so helpful when trying to set the right mood. There is also a resource that I use for helping my design flow started. This resource is called designspiration.
