Variable font spotted in the wild!

The typeface is Kario

The sounding typeface Sonic Waves might get a second live as #VariableFont.
Production name #WhiteNoise.

Four axes to be able to animate the waves all together or in parts.

#Animated in KF Player by @simontruffer

We know it is against ethics of the type design community, but after #Affinity not fixing a bug for almost a year, we changed the axis names in #PurpleHaze to “wght” and “wdth”.
Technically wrong, but we rather have it work for everyone.

Weight Unispace: wght
Weight Spaced: wdth

(It’s a silent update without new version number)

Thanks for all the tips and comments.

We have not seen much excitement on here about the fact that #Adobe finally announced #VariableFont support for #AfterEffects after all these years.
