Kelli Anderson made an activation video (to tease bookstores) of her upcoming pop-up book on how letters got their shapes... and it looks bananas: https://vimeo.com/1082361049/54eb30d072 😍

🎉 Behind the Headers!

@alphabettes went live in September 2015 but was missing one thing: an official logo. Since then, we’ve featured nearly 250 headers showcasing new type and lettering.

📚 Our book, Alphabettes Soup, will include the full ten year archive of headers but we need your help to make this soup sizzle! Sponsor / donate here: https://tinyurl.com/alphabettes-soup

New article and header by Brooke Hull in @alphabettes
“By speculating design futures that better embody diverse bodies, this research challenges designers to think deeply about their design histories and how the systems of oppression can insidiously creep their way into our work.” https://www.alphabettes.org/disrupting-type-canons-representing-fat-bodies/

So here’s a thing we did last week

A free workshop to make posters for the women’s march At UNAM-Iztacala, a faculty of mostly biological and medical sciences at the National University here in México.

I’ll be joining the @alphabettes hangout at some point to talk about this if you wanna chisme. 👀
