Left to right: Steve Baker (Red Antenna), Rosten Woo (CUP), John Mangin (CUP), Sean Basinski (The Street Vendor Project), and James Reeves (Red Antenna) discuss big things.
CUP’s Making Policy Public project continues and we all met at our Red Antenna office yesterday to discuss the scope of content that will go into the final fold-out poster for The Street Vendor Project. How much will be directed towards street vendors as a much-needed resource, and how much will be an educational/advocacy tool about street vendors and regulation reform? How much will be about clarifying the convoluted regulations into clear graphics and how much will be about showing just how convoluted it currently is? Will the tone be neutral, pleasantly reform-suggestive, or fight-the-man militant? Probably not the latter, but it’s fun to imagine the extreme… I’ve always wanted to draw a big fist. Stay tuned for next week when I come up with some design directions!
