Our guest is graphic designer, educator, and founder of Studio Bema, Michal Janicki.
In this episode, Michal speaks with host Christian Solorzano about moving to Chicago from Poland at the age of 13, his introduction to art, design, and creativity — and how they were forms of expression and self-discovery, which eventually led to a career in graphic design. Michal also shares his perspective on emerging technologies, specifically AI, and how he's experimenting and incorporating them into personal projects. We also hear about his approach to teaching and thoughts on design's role across culture and society, and much more.
