A newsprint type specimen featuring six experimental typefaces designed by students and one by me!
The included typefaces are:
- Orchestra by Amelie Barbati
- IAD Display by Maya De Marco
- Stitched Sans by Zo Kopyna
- Stung by Claire Lamarre-Niemi
- Avoid Grotesque by Kevin Yuen-Kit Lo
- Sans Sleepeth by Ayisha Thier
- Barrio Script by Itzue Tonantzi Reyes Román
With this publication, I am thinking through typeface design and distribution, spurred by a few recent controversies in the type design world (see here and here). How might the design, distribution methods, and initial settings of typefaces determine the contextual grounding of, and ideological affinities with, the visual expression of language as a form of politics?
The typefaces are available for free download here.
