Like many cities that struggle with under-developed, neglected neighborhoods, Memphis has experienced an influx of artistic interventions focused on community renewal in many different forms and applications.
Especially interested in the human experience and social dynamics of place, Normoyle considers how interventions can impact underdeveloped communities and inspire placemaking. I have always been interested in examining artifacts within the larger context of place, activity, audience and experience. Specific areas of interest include typographic interventions, type design & lettering, technology's role in design making - the historical, contemporary practice, and speculative theoretical approaches, the design process and whole systems thinking, and the ongoing pursuit of design shifts in practice, pedagogy, and academia.
