AWARDS SHOW & GUEST SPEAKER:

Jeff Barlow, Jelvetica and President of AIGA Seattle
"Design = Rock and Roll (I can prove it)"

One day while transcribing "I am the Walrus" to play on his guitar, Jeff discovered something powerful: That Rock and Roll and Design are overlapped in so many ways that they're practically the same thing. There's pattern, repetition, structure, refinement, and the power to change the world.
