La guida di Informapirata a Friendica, dedicata a tutti coloro che dal Fediverso vogliono ottenere tutto il possibile.

Un Mastodon con gli steroidi e attualmente l’unica alternativa a Facebook di tutto il Fediverso. Con mille pregi e, soprattutto, mille difetti. E mai nessuno che ci spieghi come utilizzarlo.
Almeno finora…

New project for #typography & #calligraphy fans: we just launched the ARETE visualisation – a visual and interactive history of the Latin alphabet!

https://uclab.fh-potsdam.de/arete/en

The visualisation reveals the diversity and variance of the Latin alphabet in the last 2000 years.

The project is not complete. Rather, it is a first attempt to bring the history of the alphabet into an interconnected structure and to present the major historical developments in a clear, evocative way. We welcome feedback!

• Animated Bézier curves.

• Photographically modifying letters with lenses.
• Fonts designed to work at specific point sizes.
• The typography of the advertising headline.
• A flexible new sans serif typeface designed for contemporary use.

PROZA is an absolutely gorgeous font family, I completely agree!

This is the first I've come across it, but I immediately want to buy it and start using it. I particularly like its 4 sets of numerals (lining aka regular; oldstyle; tabular lining; and tabular oldstyle).

It took me a long time to find a typeface for https://iamkate.com. I was looking for an elegant humanist sans-serif resembling my obsessively neat handwriting, with advanced typographic features and a licence allowing self hosting.

I eventually discovered Proza, designed by Jasper de Waard at Bureau Roffa: http://bureauroffa.com/about-proza. It comes in six weights in both roman and italic, includes small caps and nine sets of numerals, and is absolutely beautiful.
