Change You Can Be Mistified By

If you're an Indy resident and have been living under a rock (or simply don't drive on the north side or read any local publications) you may have missed this little doozy:

In the art world there are many big cities that go mostly unnoticed for their talent. Ours here in Indy is one of them. Despite being the twelfth largest city in the nation and having a pool of very talented artists, Indy seems to go mostly unnoticed by the larger design world. To be honest, I'm not sure who Indiana Live's agency of record is, but whomever it may be is really making life hard for those of us in Indy who really do want to be legitimate. Despite a good amount of local criticism, we'll probably go on being known as "that major city whose designers thought it was cool to copy Obama."

On the bright side, it never gets old to hear people try to talk about the economic stimulus. It was awesome to hear "I'm concerned about the size of his stimulus package" on NPR the other day. It was even better to hear the reporter catch himself saying it.
