    All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

    I went 30 years without a TV and one of the first shows on Netflix that I watched after getting one was Abstract. Very high quality designers were featured so I thought I'd found a show that I could turn to to watch on a regular basis. Then it was discontinued. I still lament that and wish that whoever was producing, directing, writing the show would do it again. There are so few options in the art and design field. If the powers that be are reading this, please know that you would have a following if enough time were given to the show to get the word out.

    I have been waiting for something like this for so long!!! This is absolutely a great documentary, great content and great people. I watched episodes multiple times while working on my art as I felt that they are talking my language and sharing my thoughts.I want to thank the whole team for this documentary and all the artists for sharing info with full transparency with the world. You made me love my work even more! Thank you " Abstract " team. Design is for everyone. CAN'T WAIT for the new season!hj

    The episode featuring Tinker Hatfield of NIKE was great because Tinker is a living legend. His contributions to design innovation over his illustrious career have left a strong legacy.However, in the episode about all his innovations I have to correct the part about him designing the University of Oregon brand. When the branding was created in 1998 Tinker wasn't involved in the process, he took over the brand a few years after it was created and elevated it to where it is today.The original brand was created by myself and a designer named Michael Scheible. Neither one of us were given much credit and the time or in the years since. That's not how NIKE operates. It's never about the individual, it's about the team.If you want to know the real story about how the U of O brand was created you can read my post that shows various stages of the development process: http://bit.ly/29F7SQcIt's disappointing a show like Abstract, which is meant to celebrate great artists, can't give credit to the artists who did the work.Other than that, it's a great show that features some incredible people.
