Hasta La Ideas

Hosted by Don Lehman, Core77’s podcast series is designed for all those times you’re sketching, working in the shop, or just looking for inspiration from inspiring people. We’ll have conversations with interesting creatives and regular guests. The viewpoint of Afterschool will come from industrial design, but the focus will be on all types of creativity: Graphic design, storytelling, architecture, cooking, illustration, branding, materials, business, research… anything that could enrich your thought process, we’ll talk about.

We have a special edition of Afterschool out today for the start of the IDSA International Conference starting today in Chicago. We talk with conference chair Paul Hatch about the planning behind the conference, some of the speakers attendees will see, and what to do in Chicago. Even if you’re not going to the conference, this is a great behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to put on a show of this level.

A friendly reminder from the Editorial team: We hope our party will be the de facto gathering for our loyal readers, including those of you forumites who will be in attendance… See you there!
