- Attention communication designers: The Visible Language editorial staff, made up of DAAP School of Design faculty, wants to know what’s on your mind so that we can shape our archive to be more accessible and usable to design practitioners, educators, and students. Please participate by following this link to a brief survey.
Visible Language Journal is the oldest peer-reviewed design journal and advocates the potential for the research and practice of visual communication to enhance the human experience. The editorial staff strongly endorses this collective scholarship from all the authors and reviewers in the robust Visible Language network.

Matthew WizinskyAssociate Professor, Communication Design
Professor Wizinsky’s book Design after Capitalism was published by the MIT Press. It received endorsements from Ellen Lupton (Cooper-Hewitt Smithsonian Design Museum, MICA), Terry Irwin (Carnegie Mellon University, Transition Design Institute), and Carlos Teixeira (Institute of Design, IIT).
The book has been receiving attention in both academic and design practice contexts. Matt has discussed the book in events with UX designers at Google, the foresight consultancy Human Futures Studio in reference to work with IKEA, the Carnegie Mellon Futurist Club, and the social design organization What Can Design Do (Amsterdam). He also plans to give talks at Google (NYC), Carnegie Mellon University, Chicago Graphic Design Club, and podcast interviews with “Scratching the Surface” and “Dear Future” (Digital Society School, Netherlands).
An additional site full of tools to support the book (both in study and in practice) includes lecture videos, recommended readings, a glossary of terms, readers’ and teacher’s guides, case studies from the book, a collection of design guidelines for practices, and there’s even a version of the book in memes. Much of this work was supported by recent MDes alum and soon-to-be Assistant Professor (CODE) D.J. Trischler.

Design after Capitalism was released by the MIT Press on March 15, 2022.

Ashley Kubley
Associate Professor, Fashion Design
Professor Kubley was recently interviewed for an article in Fast Company, “Why apple leather is the latest vegan trend in luxury bags and shoe”. For apple leather to truly take off, the food and retail industries will need to communicate, much as they do with the production of animal leather. “Ninety-nine percent of real leather is made from byproducts of the food industry. It’s a symbiotic relationship,” says Ashley Kubley. “To that end, many meat processing plants have a tannery onsite to consolidate the process. This relationship saves around 7.3 million tonnes of biological waste from landfills each year.”
