Brick 30 - Deborah Higdon (buildings_blockd) Designer Interview Nov 22, 2020

Show notes

"I'm not an architect, but I wanted to be. I'm not a designer, but I wanted to be. I make do with plastic bricks."
LEGO has been around for a bit, and we got the chance to talk with someone who helped build the LEGO online community! Deborah Higdon is an amazing designer who was a grade school teacher for most of her life. Alongside her drive to keep creativity alive in kids, she kept her imagination going through LEGO! She has been featured in DK's LEGO Ideas Book and worked with LEGO on many other major publications. Her knowledge is unmatched and is just as passionate today about LEGO as she was back when she was a kid. Take a leap into the history of the AFOL community with Deborah and me and see that age, gender, political views, etc. doesn't really matter to staying creative and keep on building!

Check out Deborah's work!

Brick 29 - Ralph Savelsberg (Mad Physicist) Designer Interview Nov 16, 2020

Show notes

Planes, trains, and automobiles. They not only take us where we want to go, but also take our imagination to far off places too. We see KIT from Knightrider and remember the action backed episode we watched or the iconic F-14 Tomcat from Top Gun as it went inverted. Ralph Savelsberg a.k.a. Mad Physicist on Flickr has been building with LEGO for over 40 years now. Those plans, trains, and automobiles inspired him to create some very iconic cars and cars and vehicles we see every day out of LEGO. We got to talk about how he designs his creations and brings them to reality. He's been a part of the LEGO community and we get to talking about all the great conventions we miss and can't wait to attend again. So sit back and get that imagination going as Ralph and I talk up his epic vehicle builds.
Check out Ralph's work!
