StereoTyped is about music & the history of music’s visual communications. Its inspiration came from writing & designing our forthcoming book StereoTyped: Hip-Hop’s Unsung Graphic Design Heroes, Heroines & the Oral & Visual Histories of the Rap Record (1979-1989). The book explores the oral histories of Rap’s graphic design communications & told by a select group of designers, art directors & illustrators who designed the work. But visually communicating the Funk is far too broad a subject to be restricted to (our beloved) Rap alone. Blogging is perfect for expanding the topic to Funk, Jazz, Soul, R&B, Blues, Go-Go, Rap, Hip-Hop, Dance, & Rock N Roll.
Rock, Rock on!
Peace.
