Collaboration with Barrie Tullett and Sam Ladwig to create new wood type that is faster to make and less expensive.
My role is to coordinate, support, and find ways to disseminate.
I really should be printing these too, but no access to a press…though as Barrie points out, “Well you do have a spoon don’t you?!”
Well, yes.
From our juried SECAC Presentation: Physical Graffiti
Tools for designing, fabricating, and manipulating type have become more accessible both technologically and economically. Opportunities for exploring possibilities as well as challenges to developing mastery exist in each of these three areas. This session is a forum for sharing successes, epiphanies, and lessons learned during your journey of exploring the potential of physical type. We want to get into the nitty-gritty and geek out with other type nerds, so presenters are encouraged to show best practices, workarounds, serendipitous discoveries, and outright forehead-slapping failures in minute detail. Consider sharing processes, materials, tools, and approaches to type design, type fabrication, typographic-focused prints, or any other research related to physical type. The inclusion of physical type and prints during presentations would be a welcome addition to the session.
