I came across this book cover from the 1980s, and to me, it somehow comes across as #cyrillic script.

Hello tout le monde.
Je voulais dire un grand merci à Kelly, qui est graphiste. Elle m'a donné des idées pour améliorer le titre du livre ! Ses pistes m'ont complètement débloquée. J'ai complètement redessiné la typo cet été, et je trouve ça beau ! ❤
Et vous, ça vous plait ?
Bonne journée !

Happy #EWF day to all who celebrate!
Two designs inspired by Earth, Wind and Fire’s classic track. (Incidentally, also an anniversary date for me and the mrs.)

This weekend I'm hosting a free, online event profiling #signpainting traditions in #Brazil.
https://bl.ag/brazils-letter-openers-with-fatima-finizola-and-fernanda-martins/
'Brazil's Letter Openers' is a BLAG Chat with designers and #typography researchers Fátima Finizola and Fernanda Martins.
They will share their work documenting and celebrating the work of Brazil's abridores de letras (letter openers, or #signpainters). This will include an exclusive screening of the documentary film, Marajó das Letras.

German #typography nerds: I've seen a few French fonts that had special characters for gender-neutral or -inclusive word endings, but haven't seen anything like this for German. Like an asterisk that doesn't interrupt flow that much.
Lots of complaints about the lack of uppercase versions of useless German characters (ß), but nothing experimental.
Madeira font is an excellent choice for all your enjoyable design projects.

Also if there is any #typography #font enthusiasts that love recommending fonts to people, I have the above application that is currentlyon the overused Roboto font for now but I'm ready to change it early for something better. I'm not very good at picking fonts, usually going for the most popular work to avoid picking something that could look off.

Came across the edition of Wallace Stevens’ collected poems that I checked out from the library in grad school. Later on I became more aware of typography and always associated Electra with mid-century American modernism but am not entirely sure I remembered that this book was ornamented and laid out by Dwiggins himself. @brucekennett #typography #poetry (I did buy the book, for seven dollars)

Finally catching up with comics letterer and historian Todd Klein’s recent “Lettering Terms and Pioneers” posts — they’re not just about the mechanics, but a thoughtful look at how words found their way in this new medium and built their own visual language:
Part 1: https://kleinletters.com/Blog/lettering-terms-and-pioneers-part-1/
Part 2: https://kleinletters.com/Blog/lettering-terms-and-pioneers-part-2/
Part 3: https://kleinletters.com/Blog/lettering-terms-and-pioneers-part-3/
And maybe not part of the series, but a logical conclusion: https://kleinletters.com/Blog/when-lettering-became-a-profession/
***Font nerd alert**
I am looking for *non-monotype* fonts with tabular figures/numbers where the width of the minus symbol (u2212) exactly matches the width of the en quad (u2000) and the width of numbers. This is the case for example for Calibri/Carlito.
For such a font, these should line up perfectly:
−−−−−−−− 0.11111
8.88888
−−−−−−−−11.11111
(the minus is a u2212 and the spaces are u2000, but not sure if this may get lost when posted here).
This looks like so much fun, like when we made letters out of potatoes in school.

Hey typographers and designers! Can I pick your brains for a tattoo idea?
It’s from Isaac Asimov’s classic 1956 short story “The Last Question,” and will be in the form of two tattoos, one on each bicep just above the t-shirt sleeve line.
Right arm: “HOW CAN THE ENTROPY OF THE UNIVERSE BE REVERSED?”
Left arm: “THERE IS AS YET INSUFFICIENT DATA FOR A MEANINGFUL RESPONSE.”
Question is… what typeface should I use? I was thinking a mid-50s style computer typeface, but it is a story set in the future. I can’t decide!

For the #SciArtSeptember prompt “simian” I made a new edition to my ongoing series of animals with fabulous collective nouns. It’s A Conspiracy of Lemurs. These ring-tailed lemurs definitely appear to be up to something. Caught in the act of scheming. The word “lemurs” mimics their tails, of course!
The ring-tailed lemur (Lemur catta) is a wet-nosed primate, endemic to Madagascar. 🧵1/n

Dear typographers, how wide is a thin space and a hair space?
I am trying to implement U+2009 THIN SPACE and U+200A HAIR SPACE, but is there a width definition?
* Wikipedia writes 1⁄5 or 1⁄6 em for thin space.
* https://www.fontshop.com/content/adventures-in-space_spaces writes 1/8 em for thin space and 1/24 for hair space.
Is there an somewhat official guide?
