    My friend, Tim, just shared this with me. How have I missed this gem for 4 years. Would love to join this ride, any day, with James (and Tim!).

    Great vid. But curious that he didn't have anything to say about all the graffiti tags.

    I grew up around the corner from Harry Brainum's...this reminded me of my childhood in industrial Brooklyn, back in the days of leaded gasoline exhaust and thick soot on the window sills. Now, it's nothing but neck - bearded hipsters. Somehow, I think I'd rather deal with the leaded gas and the soot...

    - That was great. Really enjoyed it. I'll start looking around London, but I don't think that London is much of an interesting font town.

    Cool stuff! Thanks for the tour. Great beautiful things surround us but we just walk pass every day.

    Reminds me of another show/documentary about how everyday things are created. There was also one on the Helvetica style of font and how it was created.

    Good shit James, but if we're doing type/lettering on the street and ignoring Graff...

    Granted, I don't know the guy.. I expected to see some hipster gushing over all the retro-stuff. Good to see some actual nice design crit.

    When I heard about this, I thought James Victore was just going to drive around bash a bunch of different signage, I'm glad he didn't, there is already so much negativity in the world. I'd love to see more of all of this, perfect show for History or Discovery Channel, I just hope he could come up with enough content.

    • @Vondruke

      Also, do an episode on Comic Sans and why people should hate it.. or love it.. or whatever.. as layman, I just don't get all the hate.

    Takes me back to the old days when I was a kid. Very nostalgic some of the old fonts displayed. Really liked this.

    I'd like to personally invite James to Detroit. I think he'd have a field day.

  • @jamdoodles
    @jamdoodles 10 лет назад

    I honestly didn't expect to enjoy this, but this guy's genuinely nerdy about signage and design without being pretentious and clearly trying to sound clever. He's clever without obviously trying, that's what I enjoyed, and it enabled me to actually learn from him.

      I agree, I like the way he's going out, making videos about the TYPE and FONT of NYC.. With/From the perspective of a Graphic Designer. Neat. I want more. Much more. An entire show devoted to the TYPEFACES of NYC! C'mon! :)
