2503: Desktop Publishing

from Permanently Moved · host Jay Springett

This episode explores the history of Desktop Publishing, its impact on DIY print culture, and how its 'ransom note' aesthetic was later echoed in early web design and why 'brain rot' videos feel like a return to folk aesthetics.
