emigre and perspecta

it is kind of funny that when i look thru the thank you's of the starting chapter of "the end" of "emigre' i noticed that he thanked michael bierut and "perspecta" is published at yale university ( a magazine about architecture that is published by the graphic design department at yale). michael bierut teaches at yale ( or used to),he is a graphic designer. what interests me here is the connection of writing about visual arts while only using text. both perspecta and emigre do that, their brand is writing about visual stuff while omitting images. and they are pretty successful. so we could do that at ecuad too. - ( one more thing, i think "perspecta" is student published, whereas "emigre" was not.
