Michael Bierut reveals a truth every designer eventually learns: iconic work doesn’t give you freedom — it gives you responsibility.

🎧 Comment “Pentagram” and we’ll DM you the episode link to the full conversation.

When he talks about Harry’s Pink Floyd project, he reminds us that you’re not designing in a vacuum. People already have an emotional history with that visual language, and your job is to honour it while taking it somewhere deeper.

Great design carries the past forward, not away.

Ideas worth doing.

Talking about humanity is easy.

Acting on it is not.

Shekhar Natarajan doesn’t romanticise the idea of “kindness” — he interrogates it. Especially when the power to change lives already sits in your bank account.

Most cities don’t lack ideas. They lack a structure that turns those ideas into talks people actually share.

Oxford Talks Circle is our new division designed to open more stages in more cities — with **one Curator per city** entrusted to lead the ideas that shape their community, and host filmed talks produced to Oxford’s cinematic standard.

We’re in the launch phase now and opening conversations with potential Curators.

We’re releasing a conversation tomorrow that sits right at the fault line between technology and humanity.

In a time obsessed with speed, optimisation, and scale, Shekhar Natarajan and Waleed slow things down to ask harder questions:
What should intelligence actually optimise for? And who decides?

This episode isn’t about predictions. It’s about responsibility, in leadership, in systems and in the choices we make when no one’s watching.

🎙️ New Oxford Talks episode. Out tomorrow.
