Spiekermann talks about everything from his osmosis-like design process to typography in the age of the intertubes. And he drops plenty of pithy bombs along the way. Speikermann on tax forms: "I could make then 100 times better in two days." Speikermann on Florida's butterfly ballots: "The forms were so bad they [voters] voted for an asshole."
