A quick update on the latest in Glenn!

I launched the Tiny Typecast, interviews on location and remotely about how type, design, and printing’s past informs the present and guides the future. Subscribe via Apple Podcasts or your favorite podcasting app; if you can’t find a listing, paste this podcast URL in your app.

The topics will be wide-ranging, but I launch with an interview of the folks at Letterform Archive in San Francisco. It’s an incredible collection of graphic design history that’s in active use by modern-day designers as well as historians. I loved it and can’t wait to visit them in their upcoming new location. The second episode is a talk with Keith Houston, author of The Book, about the long-running success of the book format (the codex), and how little has changed, as well as our expectations of what a book is like.

My new book, Take Control of Home Security Cameras, is just out. It’s an ebook that’s part buying guide and part philosophy adviser. Many of us (including my family) have security cameras, but there are many choices you can make as to which camera or system meets your purpose (crime spotting or general monitoring?), security, privacy, and other needs.

The last 20 or so Tiny Type Museum & Time Capsules are available for sale. We’re about to ship the first 70-odd that were pre-ordered, and the next set will be ready for shipment by July. If you’ve been interested in getting one, the time is ripe, as they are slowly selling and the edition will be permanently sold out in just a few months.

You might have also caught that I wrote, hosted, and produced seven weeks of the Election Ride Home podcast, part of the Ride Home growing family of daily, brief summaries of different areas of interest. It was a hoot and exhausting and interesting, but I was acting as a sort of interim host between my friend Chris Higgins (who needed to step away for family reasons) and the network finding a new daily host. Give a listen to Jackson Bird’s 15-to-20 minute summary of everything you need to know about the election, every weekday.
