Final Round of Speakers Announced for Made by Few

July 16, 2015

Made by Few has announced the final round of speakers for its 2015 conference for makers of the web, scheduled for Oct. 1-3 from the Ron Robinson Theater in Little Rock's River Market District.

The final round of speakers with bios:

Ash Huang, Independent Designer

Ash Huang is an independent designer, writer and illustrator. She has worked with Pinterest, Dropbox, Designer Fund, Sequoia Capital, Aether, Twitter and more. In between writing novels, troubleshooting her letterpress and driving there and back again, you’ll find her making things in San Francisco.

Kyle Durrie, Power and Light Press

Kyle is the proprietor of Power and Light Press, a letterpress studio based in Silver City, New Mexico. Kyle takes great pride in the pursuit of fine craftsmanship, but she works just as hard to hone a juvenile, sometimes inappropriate sense of humor. She specializes in hand-printed greeting cards and occasionally does custom work such as business cards, posters, music packaging, invitations, and stationery.

Jason Scott, Free-Range Archivist at the Internet Archive

Jason Scott is Free-Range Archivist at the Internet Archive, home of the Wayback Machine, millions of books, thousands of movies and untold hours of music. It is also the home to the Internet Arcade and vintage software collections. Jason is also a documentary filmmaker, roustabout, and mascot of Archive Team, the rowdiest horde of archivists this side of the Taneleer Tivan.

They join:

  • Elana Schlenker, publisher, Gratuitous Type
  • Harper Reed, founder, Modest Inc.
  • Christian Rudder, co-founder, OKCupid
  • Randy J. Hunt, creative director at Etsy
  • Tobias van Schneider, lead designer at Spotify
  • Aaron Draplin, designer at Draplin Design Co.

More info and full bios on all the speakers are available at the MxF site here. And don't forget Designed by Few, scheduled for 7 p.m. on Oct. 2 and this year benefiting the Thea Foundation. Designers can register here.
