  • Quark vs. InDesign: Alien Wars (with Jason Sturgill)

    Illustrator, art director, and famous-cat haver Jason Sturgill joins Sean to talk screensaver dreamscapes, Henry Rollins’ snowstorm preparedness tips, and Instagram museums. It’s the episode that asks, what if we made a car entirely out of plastic? We’re building castles in the sky, just the two of us!

  • Sometimes The Moment Needs Extra Mayo (with Kyle Letendre)
    Lettering artist extraordinaire and Portland foliage fan Kyle Letendre joins Sean to talk Minnesota’s missing lakes, misguided entrepreneurial spirit, and rebrands that aren’t quite making the grade.

  • My Dangerous Fish Attack (with Alanna Risse)

    Alanna Risse joins Sean for the first episode of 2022 recorded in 2022 to talk mystery meat, accidental crimes, and all the reasons a nose is a good idea. We’re quantifying Photoshop filters in terms of number of cigarettes it takes them to finish rendering in the episode that asks how often is too often for a beer bash?

  • Undercover Blankets (with Brendan Mulligan)

    It’s nearly March 2022, which means it’s time for the last episode recorded in 2021, and it’s one that starts pretty real and raw before pivoting into cookie shoptalk and the usual nonsense.

    Brendan Mulligan (Nike Tees Graphics and @coolkidbrendan) joins Sean to talk about what they want on their Tombstones, sneeze guards, and the nightmarish realm that is the McDonald's Play Place. What even is design? We’re just talking about specific pastry vendors at the Portland State University Saturday farmers market. Serenity now!

  • Gnomes: True Secrets Revealed (with Briar Levit)

    Text ahoy! Designer, design historian, and filmmaker Briar Levit joins Sean to talk about the history of rude t-shirts, the secret to eternal life (for magazines), and the great shame of (a) PDA. Sean makes a guest say “ew,” which frankly is mostly surprising in that it took five whole episodes for it to happen. Remember: if you want to buy technology, don’t buy it at the mall!

    You can find Briar at @briarlevit on Instagram and @briarmade on Twitter! You can find Briar’s book, “Baseline Shift: Untold Stories of Women in Graphic Design History” at papress.com/products/baseline-shift or at your local bookstore!

  • A Michael Bay Film in App Form (with Jordan Rosenblum)
    Jordan Rosenblum (visual designer/educator/socially engaged artist) joins Sean to talk blobby blue friends, a whole lot of chrome, and The Egg Space. Sean, meanwhile, spends a solid five minutes talking about a plastic skeleton in an apron at a business he never goes to! It’s the episode that finally diagrams it out for everybody who’s been dying to know: culture is where the RAM slot is and psycholinguistics is the foot. The more attention you draw to it, the more tomblike it feels!Learn more about Jordan’s work at https://jordanrosenblum.com!Follow "Did I Do That?" on some of the things via our website, https://dididothat.design!If you enjoyed this episode, why not tell a friend (please ignore the many obvious reasons why not)? Please also rate us highly on your podcast platform of choice, even in spite of the note that will follow this paragraph!Editor’s note: much like an actual Michael Bay film not in app form, this episode suffers from a bit of overzealous editing. Apologies if there’s some sound clipping and level mismatches here and there. It's not great always, but it could be worse!

  • Very Dramatic Trash Can (with Kate Bingaman-Burt)

    Illustrator-entrepreneur-educator-multi-hyphenate-powerhouse Kate Bingaman Burt joins Sean to talk cheerleading, kiln-based graphic design, and the always enticing vegetable medley. Sean, meanwhile, forgets that it is his job to talk on the show he hosts and unintentionally continues our student publication double-header by editing pre-taped episodes in the wrong order! We’re breaking all the rules on this one—it’s not going to look like what your grandma’s making!

  • Compelled by the Viscosity (with Taryn Cowart)

    Taryn Cowart (Creative Director at Instrument) joins Sean to talk about wedding ghosts, the Great D̵i̵s̵m̵a̵l̵ Swamp, and sheet cake shenanigans. We're layin’ eggs and droppin’ bombs in the episode that the former editors of the Coraddi call “a cesspool of commies and queers.”

  • Pivot to Print (with Ethan Allen Smith)

    Ethan Allen Smith (Associate Creative Director at Owen Jones) joins Sean to talk about local cat food, collecting feather dusters, and the success of Water World. Sean contributes the worst "The Californians" impression ever put to tape and manages to somehow forget the name of the show—truly an auspicious start.

  • Introducing Did I Do That?

    Graphic design may be my passion, but danged if it isn't awfully weird to do too.

    Did I Do That? is all about that! It's a new podcast what it's like to really make design and make mistakes, because you can't do one without the other. Every other week, Sean Schumacher (Assistant Professor of Graphic Design at Portland State University) is joined by a guest from the world of design with a special story about their own mistakes starting out, how they ended up where they did, and other traditional topics pertinent to podcast listeners like "what was the weather like on the day they recorded this?" and "is this really the name of the show? Like, for sure?"

    Sound good? Did I Do That? comes out every other Thursday starting December 16. Subscribe now, won't you?
