Date

In their first assignment for Justin Colt and Jose Fresneda’s "Type For Masters" class, MFAD first-year students picked ideas out of a hat, or rather, two hats divided into art movements and musical movements. Art movements like Expressionism, Ready-made, Brutalism, Avant-garde, and Renaissance; and music movements like rock, hip-hop, punk, jazz, country and classical. Cool mixes like Avant-garde hip-hop, Ambient Brutalism and Gothic Country were created. The students were then tasked with designing an album cover that encompassed and reinterpreted the two. These are some of the hits.
