Dan Michaelson and Tamara Maletic are the graphic design partnership Linked by Air. Design and technology are intertwined inventive processes in the studio's work, which often focuses on the production of public space, both physical and online. Dan previously worked at the design firms Pentagram and 2x4. He holds a BA in history from Columbia University and an MFA in graphic design from Yale. He is on the faculty at Yale, where he teaches the studio courses Networks & Transactions 1 and 2 to first- and second-year graduate students, and a second-year graduate thesis studio. In 2004, Linked by Air was awarded a Charles Nypels grant for research on community-built embedded digital sign systems.
