There's Nothing Funny About Design
". . . no one has ever written about graphic design in quite this way. The title sounds more like a short story, and at times I found myself reading it as though it were a fictional exploration of a designer's consciousness. When I did, itsenergy, relentlessness, emotion, and abundance of detail made sense, as did its literary style. Barringer writes entertainingly and has a gift for intricate metaphor. . .Designers who enjoy ambitious writing will find plenty toadmire . . ." From Rick Poynor's I.D. Magazine review of "American Mutt Barks in the Yard" (Emigre; 68) By winning the 2008 Winterhouse Award for Design Writing, David Barringer firmly established himself as the freshest and most int...
American Home Life
A comic novel of contemporary suburban fatherhood, American Home Life tackles the domestic, tragicomic, and futuristic (talking appliances, chore cards, I.D. chips, corporate schools, and shock bracelets that force you to lose weight). "We all have our lists of writers we love, those writers not everyone in the world knows about but should. Sometimes we keep these writers close to us and don't tell anyone. But the hell with all that. A great, talented writer deserves to be known to everyone, which is one reason why you should read the work of David Barringer."-Bob Sassone, Professor Barnhardt's Journal"Really, really excellent, highly recommended for any dad with young kids. It's written 15 ...
Mosaic Marriage
A mosaic is not about one piece. Its the accumulation of pieces that make the entire depiction. Marriage is a mosaic. Every day, every moment, new pieces come together to help form a greater, more beautiful image. In Mosaic Marriage, author and pastor David Barringer offers a collection of memoirs and thoughts about marriage and relationships, some of them reprinted from his blog. He shares his ideas about building a strong marriage using personal anecdotes and many Biblical examples to provide a guide for those seeking insight and wisdom about their marital relationship. Each chapter provides a thought for a day and a challenge to work on. Barringer tells how there is nothing perfect about marriage; it is full of flaws and issues. But when its put together in a covenant with God, a beautiful picture comes into focus. Mosaic Marriage serves to assist, encourage, and build up marriages and soon-to-be marriages. Its the guide to help bring broken pieces into one complete marriage.
American Mutt Barks in the Yard
One of our goals in publishing a design magazine is to set Emigre apart from the herd. We want to stay off the beaten path, so to speak, and seek out what lies beyond the obvious. We want to push the limits of design publishing even as we work to survive. When we noticed that, in the last few years, design publications had suddenly become oversweetened by so-called "eye candy," we decided to challenge the imagination, not just tickle the optic nerve, and focus on design writing. Today, when it comes to design writing, we are not alone. Blogs are the new order, and the order is growing. Design blogs have their virtues, of course, but blogging about design appears to be habit-forming and has b...
Speaking from the Shadows
If discouragement is the common cold of our emotions, then depression is the cancer. I love Jesus, I pastor a church, and I deal with bouts of depression. For years I’ve been wanting to read a book about depression not only from a Christ-centered perspective but from a leader who knew the struggle personally. It was Toni Morrison who once said, “If there’s a book that you want to read, but it hasn’t been written yet, then you must write it.” Thus you have Speaking from the Shadows. For those who deal with depression, this is my attempt to articulate what you and I experience that others don’t understand. For those who’ve never dealt with depression, this is my endeavor to “pu...
