An Interview with Nay Nay Bane: Detroit Graphic Designer/Illustrator
By Alexis Simpson We had been desperately in need of a logo/branding, but I couldn’t come up with any ideas so I put a hold on it until recently. Our publication’s name is “Noize” because of the noise music makes and the noise found in low-light photography. I thought it would be zany to make [...]
