JASON DUERR / PARLIAMENT



JASON DUERR spoke this morning at a career tools breakfast. Good food and knowledgeable code minds met full force. Jason tag teams DROPKICK (personal gig) along with SANDSTROM here in Portland.

Always great hearing about a part of design, or something closely related that inspires and shakes things up. Jason was on web coding when you were in diapers and the dot com boom exploded back in the 90's. Just imagine building a website with 216 colors and no connection speed to be heard of all while looking amazing for a high paying client. Quite amazing. I hear stories about how companies were just throwing money at these people, who were all new to the game as well. On the fly gotta know what your talking about kinda stuff. Stressful.

It was great to hear the man speak and put it all out on the table for all to hear. Thanks again Jason and AIGA.
