These are also places that viruses like this haven’t been before. So it’s reaching elephant seals and sea lions in South America that have no prior immunity. Our founder is jeffstaple (born Jeffrey Ng) ... A creative visionary with work encompassing graphic design, fashion design, footwear design, and brand marketing. He is the founder of REED ART DEPARTMENT (f.k.a. Staple Design) and has worked on creative projects ranging from startup brands to Fortune 100 companies. Jeff founded STAPLE in 1997, the NY-based pioneering streetwear brand with the now infamous “Pigeon” logo.

An unusual outbreak of the disease has spread to dairy herds in multiple U.S. states.

Egg prices were through the roof last year, and we learned it was related to this. Avian flu has been surging in the United States. For me, motherhood has been a rebirth of self and an endless learning experience–my children have taught me so many lessons. They’ve instilled in me the importance of stopping and cherishing the moment, to take time and make time. They broaden my horizons, sharing music and culture with me in ways I never expected–especially introducing me to the wide world of sports as both a fan and a participant.

On the up-and-coming streetwear brands he's excited about:

So the sheer number of hosts that this disease has, the more opportunity it has to mutate, and the more chance it has to mutate in a way that would actually be dangerous for people. Emily, at this point, I’m kind of wondering why more people aren’t talking about this. I mean, I didn’t know any of this before having this conversation with you, and it feels pretty worrying. And it’s too soon to say what the toll will be.

It’s like the worst problem that designers have. Like my friends who work at Nike just wear black Monarchs, because they can’t actually wear what they’re designing and by the time it comes out they’re tired of it. Staple’s pigeon logo can now be found on limited edition collabs with everyone from Adidas to Levi’s to Uniqlo, with a rabid legion of fans waiting to cop each new release. His latest project is a global collaboration with Miller Genuine Draft created with input from a Russian graffiti artist, a South African fashion designer and Toronto photographer Elie Kimbembe.

On his early days as a designer:

The venue is also frequently used for major concerts, and has been the most frequent host of the Grammy Awards ceremony since its opening. There's something for every single city dweller, no matter where you live or who you are in our exclusively curated designs. When you flock together as a pigeon, you are stronger, more vibrant, surviving the harshest environments.

So the response has traditionally been to proactively depopulate or cull all the birds, so it doesn’t have a chance to spread. STAPLE is now a world renowned brand which reflects the gritty and never-ending energy New Yorkers (and all urban dwellers) possess. It not only exists as a representation of New York, but The Pigeon is also the influence behind Staple’s extensive apparel range and collaborative items available across the world. Inspired by street culture and design, Staple’s reach encompasses many different landscapes such as fashion, music, sport, and art. The outbreak of bird flu currently tearing through the nation’s poultry is the worst in U.S. history.

And we might also expect it to increase the risk to farm workers, people who might be in contact with these sick cows. And it’s now been reported on a number of dairy farms across eight US states. And that’s just something that’s totally unprecedented. A bald eagle found dead at Carvins Cove has tested positive for the highly contagious bird flu. So, OK, lots of chickens are killed in a way to manage these outbreaks. Crypto.com Arena will host the basketball competition during the 2028 Summer Olympics.

And the way these reimbursements work is they will reimburse farmers only for the birds that are proactively culled, and not for those who die naturally from the virus. And the thinking behind that is it’s a way to incentivize farmers to report outbreaks early. So, Emily, we’ve been talking here on “The Daily” about prices of things and how they’ve gotten so high, mostly in the context of inflation episodes. And one of the items that keeps coming up is eggs.

On February 22, 2005, a crowd gathered at the Reed Space boutique on New York City’s Orchard Street for the release of the Nike SB “Pigeon” Dunk Low. In essence, what we have is a 360-degree circle of being able to conceive, manufacture, market, and sell, injecting street culture, music, fashion, sneaker culture, all into that. So, Emily, we started this conversation with a kind of curiosity that “The Daily” had about the price of eggs. And then somehow we ended up learning about an ecological disaster that’s unfolding all around us, and potentially the source of the next human pandemic. So then as we know, this strain, like previous ones, makes its way from wild animals to farmed animals, namely to chickens. Although the US has a program where it will reimburse farmers for their losses.

In fact, I shudder to even say it's happening now. It's so weird, because I'm in a good space right now. But I think it's an immigrant mentality of like, if I see a dime or a nickel on the street, I still pick it up, because I still think it might be the last dime or nickel that I'll see in my life. Even though my bank account is not red anymore, it's black, and I have my credit cards now on auto pay.

But sometimes the virus mutates and evolves, and it can become extremely contagious and extremely fatal in poultry. The annual Grammy Awards ceremony has been held at Crypto.com Arena since 2000, with the exception of 2003, 2018, 2021 and 2022. As of 2023, the venue has hosted the Grammy Awards 20 times, hosting more than any other venue in the history of the Grammy Awards. I’ve always loved receiving design books for special occasions.
