KELCEY GRAY
ASSISTANT PROFESSOR OF PRACTICE|DESIGN GRADUATE ADVISOR
M.F.A in Design kelcey.gray@austin.utexas.edu
In early childhood, Kelcey was diagnosed with a severe allergy to Comic Sans. Her fate was sealed. What was she going to do, become an insurance adjuster? No, not she. She turned her affliction into a strength and became a mercenary in the battle against subpar aesthetics and mediocre branding, gently guiding clients away from amateur font choices and forcefully applying elegant kerning. But one does not become a design dynamo overnight. Mrs. Gray, a perpetual student-turned-teacher, honed her skill set through a number of educational avenues and collaborative models, completing an MFA in Graphic Design at the Maryland Institute College of Art in Baltimore.
Throughout her career, she has won several industry awards and been featured in publications like AIGA’s Eye on Design, Fast Co., Communication Arts, Gestalten Books, Fonts in Use, Graphic, UnderConsideration, STA 100, the Library of Congress, and “Type on Screen.” Additionally, she has exhibited and spoken about her work both nationally at Typographics NYC and internationally at London Design Week. Her appetite for both food and design is prodigious. Fueled by granola, dried mangos, and tortilla chips, she possesses an impressive reserve of energy for such a pint-sized vessel. She was once told she was “energetic, but not in that annoying way” by someone
16
who clearly meant well but was not very good at giving compliments. If you can get her to stop snacking long enough to offer advice, she will likely tell you “Be nice” and “Make luck.”

MONICA PENICK
ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR| DESIGN
Visiting Scholar Researcher, Harry Ransom Center Foxworth Centennial Fellow
monica.penick@utexas.edu | ART 1.302
Monica Penick is a design historian, researcher, educator, and storyteller who is interested in helping the next generation of designers change the world through good design. She teaches Design Theory and Criticism, Design Research Methods, and Design History. Initially trained in the field of cultural history and classical studies at Stanford University (where she earned a dual Bachelor’s degree with Honors), Penick came to the University of Texas at Austin to study architecture and Historic Preservation. She worked in the public and private sectors as a consultant (where her focus was research and design advocacy) before returning to graduate studies at UT, where she earned her doctorate in architectural history with a focus on American design. Penick’s research and publications have ranged from an investigation of the image and meaning of modern design as created by the American media to an examination of the relationship between politics, nationalism, regionalism, cultural identity, and design. Her research has been supported by fellowships from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation and the American Council of Learned Societies (ACLS), the American Association of University Women (AAUW), and the University of Wisconsin-Madison (where she was an Assistant Professor from 2012 to 2017). Penick’s recent book, Tastemaker: Elizabeth Gordon, House Beautiful, and the Postwar American Home (Yale University
Press, 2017), has been described by the noted historian Alice Friedman is “a game changer in both architectural history and design studies.” Tastemaker tells the story of House Beautiful magazine’s crusading editor-inchief Gordon, who decisively shaped American taste for modern design. The book – as with much of Penick’s work -- offers an engaging narrative that expands our knowledge of design history and its critical players, assesses the power of popular media, and reflects more broadly on the culture of design and the politics of consumption and identity. Monica’s current research interests include visual communication and exhibition design, and she is currently co-curating a design exhibition for the Harry Ransom Center with Christopher Long (UT School of Architecture).
KATE CANALES
CHAIR | DEPARTMENT OF DESIGN
PROFESSOR OF PRACTICE | DESIGN
Fellow of Marguerite Fairchild Centennial Professorship
Kate Canales is a Professor of Practice and the Department Chair in the Department of Design at UT’s School of Design and Creative Technologies. In this role, she oversees strategy, operations, governance, curriculum, and experience design for all four design degrees (B.A., B.F.A., M.A., and M.F.A.) as well as the Center for Integrated Design, which offers design coursework to hundreds of non-design majors each year. She joined UT in the summer of 2018. Under Kate’s leadership, the department has focused on expanding student access to design education and expanding the department’s definition of design work
21
through partnerships, hiring, and a new curriculum. Beginning in 2020, Kate guided a radical shift in undergraduate admissions guidelines, eliminating the elitist and outdated portfolio requirement, an effort aimed at diversifying the student body both demographically and disciplinarily. She has shepherded the development and implementation of the groundbreaking M.A. in Design focused on Health – a bold partnership with UT’s Dell Medical School. Additionally, the renewal of the M.F.A. in Design – spearheaded by Kate after a two-year hiatus in the program – now takes full advantage of the larger University of Texas context by asking students to develop thesis work in collaboration with another discipline on campus. All of this has been possible by the joint effort and hard work of the incredible faculty and staff in the Department of Design. Prior to UT, Kate founded and led the pioneering M.A. in Design and Innovation (MADI) at SMU’s Lyle School of Engineering. This program’s blueprint drew heavily from Kate’s experiences as a professional designer – first at IDEO and later at frog, both internationally renowned design firms – as well as the expertise of the team she assembled at SMU, which included maker education, engineering, architecture, student services, and design thinking experts. Kate’s creative practice and curiosity center around the places where design and human behavior influence one another. What does design compel (or allow) us to do? And how can our actions and emotions inform better design? She teaches classes in design research, prototyping, and experience design. Kate holds a BS in Mechanical Engineering from Stanford University. She is a Texas native who enjoys hiking, knitting, weaving, sketching, and travel. She and her husband have two kids and two dogs and
together run a happy, slightly chaotic household in central Austin.

VIC RODRIGUEZ TANG
ASSISTANT PROFESSOR OF PRACTICE|DESIGN
VCFA’s Center for Arts + Social Justice Fellow
vic.rodrigueztang@austin.utexas. edu
Vic is a Peruvian-Chinese queer creative human from Lima, Peru, living in Austin, Texas. They received their M.F.A. in graphic design from Vermont College of Fine Arts in the spring of 2022, and they have been working as an educator, designer, and art director in Texas since 2008. Their creative approach always comes from an empathetic angle or reaction to issues they have personally experienced as a queer, nonbinary, immigrant, Latinx human being with a disability living in America. The areas of concentration of their research, passion projects, and community service-based work have always focused on using design principles and design thinking to problem-solve and bring awareness about issues faced by vulnerable communities.
Vic’s current research focuses on the effects of gendering design elements throughout the years, such as typefaces and colors, within the design and advertising industry. They do this by unpacking visual gender biases using orthodox and unorthodox design explorations to test their findings. Their outcomes, influenced by queer design history, usually challenge visual gender stereotypes in design, question heteronormative standards and patriarchal practices, and explore ways to “queerify” graphic design. Vic’s work has been recognized by Fast Company, The Dallas Society of Visual Communication, The One Show in New York, HOW’s Logo Awards, and HOW’s International Design Awards.

ABHAY AGARWAL
LECTURER|CENTER FOR INTEGRATED DESIGN DESIGNER IN RESIDENCE
abhay.agarwal@austin.utexas.edu
Abhay Agarwal’s work focuses on a new theory of Artificial Intelligence. Traditionally Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been seen as a form of optimization that can accomplish tasks like path-planning, game-playing, and increasingly tasks such as object detection or autonomous navigation as well. An alternate strain of development in AI technology has seen astonishing innovation in creative activities such as writing and image drawing. How do we reconcile AI’s role in these activities, and in society in general? How are we to conceptualize AI’srelationship to humanity — as autonomous agents, augmented superpowers, or simply tools for thought? Abhay calls his new theory of AI “Post-Cognitive Design.”
