Much like [30]Chris said in 48 [31]his post, this is more of a recap than a list of highlights. That’s not to 49 say that 2023 was a bad year — far from it — but it was certainly one of the 50 more challenging ones from a work perspective. 51 52 Without a doubt, my year was dominated by the writing, illustrating, and 53 designing of my forthcoming book, [32]Universal Principles of Typography, which 54 will be published this April. Although I’d started writing the book in 2022, 55 the bulk of it was written in 2023, followed by the actual illustration and 56 design portion of the work. Creating this book permeated all parts of my life 57 and I probably mentioned it to every single person I interacted with. I’m sorry 58 if that was you. 59 60 The “challenging” part essentially came down to three things: the book’s 61 dominance (which required me to give up on client work), my Google contract 62 ending after Q1, and us having committed to getting a new kitchen (a decision 63 made in more stable financial times). But it also taught me a valuable lesson 64 about how much I’d been taking the well-paid work for granted, and indeed my 65 ability to get work. This also neatly fed into an ongoing question around what 66 it is I can and want to do. 67 68 But, overall, 2023 was great, and I’m so thankful for that. My dominant memory 69 of the year as a whole is that I spent loads of time with my kids, especially 70 during the various school holidays. But I’m mindful of putting photos of my 71 kids on the internet, so let’s find some other things to write about: 72 73 — 74 75 My first speaking engagement of the year was a very nice [33]webinar with 76 Vitaly in January — the first of many collaborations with the lovely folks at 77 [34]Smashing in 2023. 78 79 I mentioned on an Instagram story (tap through [35]this highlight) that I’d 80 settled into a new routine: spending every Sunday morning working on [36]the 81 book from a café in Bristol while Thea attended a theatre school. This 82 continued for the first half of of the year. 83 84 In February, in an attempt to hit my “50% text” deadline for the book, I took 85 myself off on what you might describe as a writing retreat. It only lasted one 86 day and was less than an hour away from home, but it’s something I look back 87 upon now with a very fond memories. Essentially, I stayed in a shepherd’s hut 88 in the back of someone’s garden and just wrote and wrote and wrote. And it 89 worked! I fully intend to write a dedicated post about this, because honestly 90 it was one of the best parts of my entire book-writing experience. 91 92 A photo highlight from 2023 93 94 In the middle of February, we got Benji — a rescue dog from a shelter in 95 Cyprus, who we’d been in the process of adopting for several months. After a 96 pretty epic journey to the UK, he finally made it to us, and has essentially 97 been snuggled up on our laps ever since. And, thankfully, he and Ozzy (who’s 98 now 12) are the best of friends. In many ways, 2023 was the year of Benji. 99 100 A photo highlight from 2023 101 102 Oh, and Benji’s name was the kids’ idea, by the way. It was that or 103 “Toothpaste” so you can see why we settled for the former. 104 105 All on my lonesome, I drove over to Cardiff to see Gojira, supported by Alien 106 Weaponry. It was a great gig. 107 108 A photo highlight from 2023 109 110 In March, I taught my [37]Typography Masterclass for SmashingConf for the first 111 time. 5 × 2.5-hour sessions, spread out over weeks. It was pretty intense, but 112 I loved it, and met some really nice participants in the process. I also 113 discovered how handy it is using an iPad as a secondary display. 114 115 A photo highlight from 2023 116 117 [38]Emma finished designing [39]the hand-lettered logo I’d commissioned, and I 118 decided to put it on some new business cards. Yeah, I know no-one does business 119 cards these days, but I felt like it deserved to exist in the real world 120 somewhere. 121 122 A photo highlight from 2023 123 124 Music-wise, 2023 was a pretty quiet year, both for [40]me as an artist and also 125 for [41]my label, but March was my / our first output: a four-track compilation 126 called [42]V/A Three, to which I contributed the track ‘Hour’. 127 128 At the end of the month, I flew over to New York to attend [43]Kinference, the 129 spiritual successor to [44]Brooklyn Beta. It was so good to see so many 130 internet / conference friends in real life. Shout out to [45]Doc, [46]Daniel, 131 [47]David, [48]Jessica, [49]Craig, [50]Josh, [51]Matthew, [52]Matthew, [53]Ben, 132 Michael, and Yaron! Probably way more. 133 134 A photo highlight from 2023 135 136 As Q1 came to an end, so did my contract with Google. Although I needed to look 137 for work, I buried my head in the sand for a bit and we spent one of the first 138 weeks of April holidaying in Cornwall. It was such a great trip, and the 139 cottage we stayed in — which I found via [54]Cornish Hideaways and was way 140 cheaper than you’d get on Airbnb — was beautiful, tucked away down a grassy 141 track. 142 143 A photo highlight from 2023 144 145 Really I could just fill this post with a tonne of Cornwall photos, but again: 146 kids on the internet and all that. 147 148 After we returned from Cornwall, we went to [55]Gifford’s Circus again (I can’t 149 recommend it enough, and I don’t like circuses). 150 151 Earlier in the year, we’d decided to get a new kitchen done, and everything 152 finally kicked off in May. We spent a couple of weeks living around all of the 153 new furniture that had to be stored in the living room, and we turned the spare 154 bedroom into a sort of temporary kitchen thanks to a microwave. It was total 155 chaos while the old kitchen was destroyed... 156 157 A photo highlight from 2023 158 159 ... but the new one was totally worth the hassle. 160 161 A photo highlight from 2023 162 163 For [56]Sam’s birthday the previous year, I’d bought her a voucher to go wine 164 tasting at a [57]local biodynamic vineyard, and we went along for a tour on a 165 beautiful spring day. Tasting the natural wines while sat in the vineyard, 166 where they’re produced in an entirely closed loop system, was pretty amazing. 167 168 A photo highlight from 2023 169 170 Also in May, I spoke at [58]AllFlows in Milton Keynes — a new event run by the 171 people behind [59]MK Geek Night (which [60]I’ve spoken at in the past). It was 172 a great event and I thoroughly enjoyed the talk given by Jennifer Estaris, who 173 works at [61]ustwo Games. She spoke (amongst other things) about [62]Alba, a 174 game I immediately went home and bought for our Switch, knowing that the girls 175 would love it. (They did.) 176 177 A photo highlight from 2023 178 179 Got some more [63]Doc and [64]Chris action in, too. 180 181 A photo highlight from 2023 182 183 In June, I decided I couldn’t keep quiet about the book any longer, so did [65] 184 an announcement post on social media and [66]a blog post here on this site. The 185 kids got chicken pox. We put various solar-powered lights up around our garden. 186 187 A photo highlight from 2023 188 189 Threads launched in July, and despite my general skepticism of Meta, [67]I 190 signed up straight away and I have to say that I love it. (A few months in, and 191 it — along with [68]Mastodon — is the X / Twitter replacement I needed.) 192 193 With the school summer holidays (and therefore plenty of childcare) 194 approaching, it became clear that there was no way I’d hit my book deadline if 195 I was also juggling client work, so I made the difficult but inevitable 196 decision to not seek out more work until the summer was over, and instead 197 dedicate all of my non-childcare hours to finishing the book. At the time, this 198 made me incredibly anxious, but in hindsight, the extra time spent with the 199 kids over the holidays made it totally worthwhile, and I’d do it again in a 200 heartbeat. 201 202 [69]Lauren visited from LA and took this nice family photo: 203 204 A photo highlight from 2023 205 206 At the end of the month, I got a draft of the book ready to send to [70]Ellen 207 so that she could write her foreword. I commemorated the occasion with a beer 208 and [71]an Instagram reel. 209 210 Having gone to Cornwall in the Easter holidays, we decided to keep our summer 211 trip pretty minimal and opted for a brief camping trip in Wales in August. We 212 didn’t realise quite how short it would be, however: camping in 40mph winds is 213 rarely a good idea, but definitely not a good idea if [72]the campsite is on a 214 clifftop overlooking the sea. After a disastrous (and, at times, kind of scary) 215 night, after which almost the entire campsite had vacated, we decided to head 216 home and book ourselves a consolatory trip. 217 218 So, towards the end of the summer holidays, we took a trip to Yorkshire (photo 219 at the top) and stayed in a beautiful (and sturdy) cabin in the middle of the 220 woods right by the moors. Truly idyllic. But a three-day trip was way too short 221 and we’re all desperate to return. 222 223 Another highlight: navigating [73]Bath’s maize maze with the [74]Clarke family. 224 225 With the kids back in school in the first week of September, I flew over to 226 Freiburg to speak at [75]SmashingConf. 227 228 A photo highlight from 2023 229 230 It was so nice to return to the city, see a bunch of my European friends (shout 231 out to [76]Marc, [77]Tobi, and the whole Smashing crew) and I even got to have 232 dinner with [78]Francis, who I’d not seen IRL in years. 233 234 A photo highlight from 2023 235 236 And, with my book deadline the following week, I made the final edits [79]from 237 a beautiful biergarten. Shortly after, I got to announce that [80]Ellen had 238 written the book’s foreword. 239 240 A photo highlight from 2023 241 242 The label Indefinite Pitch released a split single from me and Mechanist, to 243 which I contributed the track [81]‘Close’. 244 245 Once again, we attended the [82]Priston festival, and this time brought [83] 246 Francis along. 247 248 Also in September, I launched my podcast, [84]Hello, type friends! I’d been 249 saying that there was another project that was “typographic in nature” for a 250 while, and had even recorded most of the episodes at this point. The launch 251 episode, with [85]Jessica, seemed to go down really well. 252 253 Not long after my birthday in October, I cut my hair! I’d deciding to grow it 254 long in early 2018 because I’d always wanted to have long hair, but never been 255 brave enough to see it through that awkward, Darth Vader helmet kind of phase. 256 I persevered and had it properly long since around the end of 2019, but, given 257 that I was mainly just wearing it up in a man-bun most of the time, it was time 258 to go short again by October 2023. I haven’t yet regretted that decision. 259 260 A photo highlight from 2023 261 262 [86]Sam and I had our 10th wedding anniversary in 2022, but in 2023, we 263 celebrated 20(!) years of being together, and took a bottle of bubbly out to a 264 spot in Shropshire we’d originally visited when we first started dating. 265 266 [87]Jamie mentioned that [88]Ellen would be speaking in London, giving [89]a 267 lecture at St. Bride’s, so we went along and met [90]Phil and [91]Sarah there, 268 too. Also used the opportunity to have lunch with [92]Tom. 269 270 Around that time, I launched the second episode of Hello, type friends! With 271 [93]Dan. 272 273 Client work finally got back on track in October, too, and I started working 274 with [94]The Type Founders on [95]a new website for P22. This would be the 275 first of many collaborations (I’m working with them right now, in fact). More 276 soon. 277 278 November was a very musical month. With some financial security restored, [96] 279 Sam and I decided to buy something we’d wanted for a long time: a piano. Just a 280 digital one, of course, but with 88 fully weighted keys — one that felt proper. 281 I also treated myself to a little Orange amplifier so that I could play 282 electric guitar in the house again. 283 284 I finally got to meet [97]Luke (who I’ve now been working with for a while on 285 [98]the Mote-Evolver cover art) in person, over dinner with [99]Sinead and 286 [100]Charles. Then, a few days later, Sinead, Charles, and [101]Paraorchestra 287 opened the new [102]Bristol Beacon with [103]an incredible show, and [104]Sam 288 and I got some great seats. 289 290 A photo highlight from 2023 291 292 In early December, I met up with [105]Ilana from [106]Good Type, who was 293 randomly in Bristol. I also put out my first EP of new music in a year in the 294 form of [107]All the faults, all lined up. 295 296 [108]All the faults, all lined up by Other Form 297 298 For [109]Sam’s birthday, I bought her an accordion and some lessons. I’d 299 actually bought this before we decided on the piano, but hey. Lots of 300 instruments in the house now! 301 302 I launched the third episode of the podcast, this time with [110]Erik. 303 304 On the last day “working” day of the year, I attended [111]Table Talk, a very 305 small event organised by my friend and former business partner [112]Keir. It 306 provided a much-needed dose of inspiration for the new year. 307 308 In the week before Christmas, [113]Sam and I try to make it as special as 309 possible to get the kids (and us) properly excited for the festive season. This 310 year, our pre-Christmas week of fun included seeing the [114]lights at 311 Stourhead, visiting Lacock Abbey (and eating at [115]a gorgeous pub from the 312 1400s), and visiting the roman villa at [116]The Newt with [117]Jamie and 313 family. 314 315 Some other bits 316 317 A personal highlight was the audio messages [118]Ty and I frequently sent (and 318 continue to send) each other via iMessages or Instagram DMs. I’m not sure who 319 started it, or when, but recording little snippets about what we’ve each been 320 up to has been a really nice way to communicate — and become friends — at a 321 distance. And, because of this, I’m so grateful to Ty for effectively becoming 322 my audio diary throughout the book writing process. 323 324 I deeply regret not having managed my annual “wilderness day”, which I talked 325 about a lot in my [119]2022 and [120]2021 recaps. There’s no excuse, but 326 somehow it just didn’t work out. However, I’m hoping to rectify that by getting 327 one in very early this year (it’s scheduled for this Friday, in fact) in the 328 hopes of doing another later on in the year. 329 330 At some point in the summer holidays, I lost my 500-ish day [121]Duolingo 331 streak, and that triggered a big lull in my commitment there. It picked up 332 again eventually, but I’m disappointed that I let it slip. I also let 333 meditation slip, and opened [122]Calm less and less as the year went on. I also 334 barely jogged the whole year. Bloody shameful. 335 336 But [123]I watched 68 films in 2023! Some highlights: The Banshees of 337 Inisherin, Wonka, The Creator, One Cut of the Dead, TMNT: Mutant Mayhem, Swan 338 Song, The Super Mario Bros. Movie, You Won’t Be Alone, Hostiles, and all of the 339 Mission: Impossible films (none of which I’d actually seen before). I rewatched 340 quite a lot, too, like Edge of Tomorrow, Bo Burnham: Inside, Blade Runner 2049, 341 Annihilation. 342 343 Lastly, I want to once again mention [124]the newsletter, which really grew in 344 2023. When I say “grew”, I don’t just mean in number of subscribers, but more 345 in that it’s become a real focus for me. In fact, I’d go so far as to say that, 346 in many ways, it was my favourite thing to work on last year. I still struggle 347 to articulate exactly why that is, but thank you if you’ve subscribed. I very 348 much appreciate it, and I’ve got big plans for it this year. 349 350 Previous post 351 352 [125]A newsletter manifesto that benefits readers & publishers 353 354 Music 355 356 Outside of my life as a designer, I also make electronic music as Other Form. 357 My tracks have been played by some of the world’s biggest DJs in some of the 358 world’s biggest clubs, and [126]Charlotte de Witte even opened a set with one 359 of them. You can listen to my music on all the usual streaming services (apart 360 from some vinyl-only EPs) and you can find my most recent releases below: 361 362 V/A Three 363 364 Unknown Movements 365 366 [127] EP cover 367 368 My label’s latest compilation features four tracks, including a much slower 369 (than usual) number from me. 370 371 [128]Listen [129]Buy 372 373 Neanthe 374 375 trau-ma 376 377 [130] EP cover 378 379 Releasing music can sometimes feel like shouting into the ether, so it’s always 380 incredibly rewarding when someone wants to put it out on one of your favourite 381 labels. My latest EP is out now on Robert Hoff’s tra-ma label and the title 382 track was played by Luke Slater during his set at Berghain on New Year’s Eve 383 2022. 384 385 [131]Listen [132]Buy 386 387 Oktober: revisit 388 389 Unknown Movements 390 391 [133] EP cover 392 393 I revisited my track “Oktober” five years after its original release and 394 invited a bunch of friends along to remix it for a total of 9 new versions. 395 396 [134]Listen [135]Buy 397 398 399 400 Follow Other Form 401 402 • [136]Bandcamp (label) 403 • [137]Instagram 404 • [138]SoundCloud 405 406 © 2005 – 2024 Elliot Jay Stocks.
