Finally online: Beyond Bézier, the research projects my dear colleagues and I undertook at Écal, where we thought about type design beyond making products that use Bézier outlines. Video lectures by Matthieu Cortat, @alicesavoie, Radim Peško, Florence Yerly, Micha Wasem and myself, as well as lots of nice bonus content.

The talk I gave this week to Zamme projects on Foraging books and research is on Twitch for a couple of days more if you want to see it. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2410714504?t=350s (sorry the quality is so low, blame my slow AF Internet)

Every type foundry should be a co-op.

Type Designers: I am available for freelance work — in particular I am looking to do some more python tool development.
I have been building all sorts of custom extensions for @RoboFont, tooling for optimizing kerning large families, proofing tools, and even PDF invoice tools using DrawBot/Google Sheet/Dropbox.
My website has my GitHub link and more work!

Automatic Type Design 3

Automatic Type Design 3 – Digital Typography Yesterday And Tomorrow. Automatic Type Design is an occasional symposium focused on digital font technologies, from design to production.

Does anyone have recommendation for a fairly basic blog system with (some of) these characteristics:
- can be hosted as GitHub Pages
- simple-ish to setup and to create posts
- an RSS feed would be very nice
