Their layouts showcased selections of work by artist-illustrator-graphic designer-typographer Stephen Byram. Famous for the arresting compact disc sleeves he designs for independent musicians, Byram is best known for the album covers he designed and art directed for major music labels, among them, the Beastie Boys\u2019 <em>Licensed to Ill<\/em> and <em>Slayer\u2019s Reign in Blood<\/em> (Def Jam Records, 1986); Living Colour\u2019s Vivid (Epic Records, 1988), and Dave Douglas\u2019 <em>Witness<\/em> (BMG Records, 2001).<\/p>\n<p>The cornerstone of this semester-long student project is the article written by Professor Inciong, his third as a contributing writer for <em>Plastikcomb<\/em>. In it, he examines Byram\u2019s thoughts and motivations about art and artmaking, his package designs, collage drawings, and his unconventional approach to layout and typography. Spreads by Chu, Diese, Latella, Tas, Vidal, and Zirkenbach were supervised by Professor Inciong. The design team also worked in consultation with Byram and <em>Plastikcomb\u2019s<\/em> Founder, Editor-in-Chief, and Art Director, Aaron Beebe. The article\u2019s prefacing \u201cTeam Byram\u201d spread was written, designed, and illustrated by Chu, Diese, Latella, Tas, Vidal, and Zirkenbach.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Click on each image below to view examples of the <em>Plastikcomb<\/em> article.<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"prpl-photo-gallery\"><p class=\"a11y-label\">Click on an image below to enlarge photo.<\/p><div class=\"previous-button\"><a href=\"javascript: ;\">Previous<\/a><\/div><div class=\"next-button\"><a href=\"javascript: ;\">Next<\/a><\/div>\n<ul>\n<li><div class=\"gallery-item\"><div class=\"photo-holder\" style=\"background-image: url(/art-and-design/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/208074/responsive-media/cache/art-and-design/wp-content/uploads/sites/91/2024/02/Screenshot-2024-02-23-at-11.41.18-AM.png.0.1x.generic.jpg);\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"mlt-responsive-background\" data-original-image=\"\/art-and-design\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/91\/2024\/02\/Screenshot-2024-02-23-at-11.41.18-AM.png\" src=\"/art-and-design/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/208074/responsive-media/cache/art-and-design/wp-content/uploads/sites/91/2024/02/Screenshot-2024-02-23-at-11.41.18-AM.png.0.1x.generic.jpg\" alt=\"Plastickcomb Mag 1\"\/><\/div><div class='caption'><\/div><div class='close-button'><a href="javascript: ;">Close<\/a><\/div><div class='open-button'><a href="javascript: ;">Zoom In<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/li>\n<li><div class=\"gallery-item\"><div class=\"photo-holder\" style=\"background-image: url(/art-and-design/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/208074/responsive-media/cache/art-and-design/wp-content/uploads/sites/91/2024/02/Screenshot-2024-02-23-at-11.41.06-AM.png.0.1x.generic.jpg);\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"mlt-responsive-background\" data-original-image=\"\/art-and-design\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/91\/2024\/02\/Screenshot-2024-02-23-at-11.41.06-AM.png\" src=\"/art-and-design/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/208074/responsive-media/cache/art-and-design/wp-content/uploads/sites/91/2024/02/Screenshot-2024-02-23-at-11.41.06-AM.png.0.1x.generic.jpg\" alt=\"Plastickcomb Mag 2\"\/><\/div><div class='caption'><\/div><div class='close-button'><a href="javascript: ;">Close<\/a><\/div><div class='open-button'><a href="javascript: ;">Zoom In<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/li>\n<li><div class=\"gallery-item\"><div class=\"photo-holder\" style=\"background-image: url(/art-and-design/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/208074/responsive-media/cache/art-and-design/wp-content/uploads/sites/91/2024/02/Screenshot-2024-02-23-at-11.40.51-AM.png.0.1x.generic.jpg);\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"mlt-responsive-background\" data-original-image=\"\/art-and-design\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/91\/2024\/02\/Screenshot-2024-02-23-at-11.40.51-AM.png\" src=\"/art-and-design/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/208074/responsive-media/cache/art-and-design/wp-content/uploads/sites/91/2024/02/Screenshot-2024-02-23-at-11.40.51-AM.png.0.1x.generic.jpg\" alt=\"Plastickcomb Mag 3\"\/><\/div><div class='caption'><\/div><div class='close-button'><a href="javascript: ;">Close<\/a><\/div><div class='open-button'><a href="javascript: ;">Zoom In<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/li>\n<li><div class=\"gallery-item\"><div class=\"photo-holder\" style=\"background-image: url(/art-and-design/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/208074/responsive-media/cache/art-and-design/wp-content/uploads/sites/91/2024/02/Screenshot-2024-02-23-at-11.40.26-AM.png.0.1x.generic.jpg);\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"mlt-responsive-background\" data-original-image=\"\/art-and-design\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/91\/2024\/02\/Screenshot-2024-02-23-at-11.40.26-AM.png\" src=\"/art-and-design/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/208074/responsive-media/cache/art-and-design/wp-content/uploads/sites/91/2024/02/Screenshot-2024-02-23-at-11.40.26-AM.png.0.1x.generic.jpg\" alt=\"Plastickcomb Mag 4\"\/><\/div><div class='caption'><\/div><div class='close-button'><a href="javascript: ;">Close<\/a><\/div><div class='open-button'><a href="javascript: ;">Zoom In<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><!-- cached result -->\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Associate Professor Anthony Inciong leads Visual Communication Design Majors&#8217;
