I'd love to hear you speak on the graphic design of the Satanic Scriptures. I was blown away with the slipcase version.

@bigbossmatt - Thanks! I liked the work that I did typesetting the rituals, but that was more involved and took quite a bit of consideration to produce a logical typography and visual hierarchy.

@UnderworldAmusements Yes, fantastic work. I got it out again today and had a look after watching these lecture videos. If my house was burning and I only had moments to spare, I would make sure I got that book; most of my other valuables are replaceable. I wish I bought a few copies now because, although I'd only keep one, being entrepreneurial, I could have made a lot of money selling the first editions on ebay. I see the hard covers goes for a couple hundred alone...

Again, as a LaVeyan Satanist, I found this is excellent. I have enjoyed every one of the 9 lectures and found them refreshing. Kevin puts some real vigour and character in to his presentation and this inspired me greatly. No need for translation or to try to understand the "meaning" of the words.

Hail Satan!
