notes from The Critique - December 17, 2007

hybrid fonts
create a new font


calligraphy - skills

we're paying so much attention to the print
They are like logos.

Think about the possibilities of wood, plastic, Cintra (plastic composite)...

Go visit Hoefler & Frere-Jones in NYC
Cyrus Highsmith
Font Bureau - Boston
Generate more "stuff" with them

This particular project is "static".
That particular project is "done".


PHASE II: Meeting "real" artists.
