in preparation for my upcoming class on @coldtype at @coopertype, i made this... uh... remix of the ipa vowel chart?

more than anything it was an excuse to use the brill typefaces by @TiroTypeworks (and led to me fixing some issues with glyph clustering in coldtype) and the ipa vowel audio files from wikipedia

code for the video is here: https://github.com/coldtype/coldtype/blob/main/examples/animations/ipa_vowels.py
registration for the class is here (starts feb 11!): https://coopertype.org/events/type-sound-code-an-introduction-to-coldtype

Thankfully, @robstenson (the person who makes coldtype) is teaching a class about it online for @coopertype, starting next week.

You better believe I am signing up:
