DAVID CARSON
Carson was hired by publisher Marvin Scott
Jarrett to design Ray Gun, an alternative music and lifestyle magazine that
debuted in 1992. In one issue, he notoriously used Dingbat, a font containing
only symbols, as the font for what he considered a rather dull interview with
Bryan Ferry.
The whole text was published in a legible
font at the back of the same issue of Ray Gun, complete with a repeat of the
asterisk motif, this then made Carson well known and attracted new admirers to
his work.
