  • Great Guests, Great Questions, Frustrating Editing

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Heidi Saman (Editor: Seen)
Q: What is the relationship between BlackStar and Seen, besides the obvious ones? Is it a case of you wearing a few hats, or is it one big hat?
She explains that Seen is a major program within BlackStar, with her rotating between editing, curation, and programming roles; the magazine is deeply integrated into BlackStar's mission while maintaining its own editorial identity.
Heidi Saman (Editor: Seen)
Q: So, tell me how you got here. You're a filmmaker. A lot of editors of magazines take circuitous paths to their current job. And I know being the editor of Seen isn't your only job, but you started as a filmmaker.
Heidi describes her journey from film school and documentary work to a long tenure at Fresh Air, then transitioning into editing Seen, leveraging her storytelling background and visual sensibility to shape the magazine's voice and direction.
Best of PID: Tyler Brûlé (Founder: Monocle, Wallpaper*, more)
Q: Where did the idea for Monocle come from, and was the launch vision fully formed?
He describes a long evolution from pre-Wallpaper days, a desire to create a global, print-forward brand with multiple bureaus, and a belief in maintaining quality and independence.
Best of PID: Tyler Brûlé (Founder: Monocle, Wallpaper*, more)
Q: How cool is it to be Tyler Brûlé?
Brûlé explains that the perception of cool is less important than maintaining a relentless work ethic, a strong editorial mission, and staying true to the brand's values.
Best of PID: Stella Bugbee (Editor: The New York Times Styles, more)
Q: How did Stella set out to reinvent The Cut when she joined and what was the mandate?
She aimed to reinvent the women's magazine by creating a more vocal, internet-enabled platform that invited broad participation and broke from traditional top-down fashion discourse.
