We see the man that influenced Bodoni and the Didot family, but he wasn’t truly appreciated until long after his death in 1775. This was achieved in the 1920’s when Bruce Rogers, who was the inventor of the Centaur typeface, was one of the driving forces of the revival of Baskerville’s type (Boardley, I Love Typography). Also of note was that Baskerville’s body had an interesting afterlife as in 1821 his coffin was discovered as workmen were digging out a cannel for…

posters, stickers, wayfinding items, murals, and stamps. One can basically see Mexico radiating out and bringing its energy into the country. There were also lots of parallel lines, combining geometry and creating number forms. Wyman also created a typeface for the Olympics based on the logotype that composed with mainly with Bauhaus and art deco influences with lines radiating out of each…

Carliner’s three-part framework: Physical, Cognitive, and Affective. The recipe also includes other crucial information design elements that correlate with Carliner’s presented by White, Lipton, and Kress Van Leeuwan. Such elements include white space, typefaces, motion, and unity. The first step to a useful design is the physical aspect. Physical helps users find information, but ‘good’ physical design lets them find information of interest easily (Carliner, 564). The border and heading…

though Buenos Aries and I pause – mechanically now, perhaps – to gaze at the arch of an entryway and its inner door; news of Borges reaches me by mail, or I see his name on a list of academics…My tastes runs to hourglasses, maps, eighteenth-century typefaces, etymologies…Borges shares these preferences (Borges 1) The story begins with a statement about Borges and a description of the main’s character’s action.

this new script was promoted and developed as the calligraphic standard in Europe. Carolingian Minuscule was the writing standard in Europe until around 1200. Then, it was revived during the Italian Renaissance and later became the model for modern typefaces. Charlemagne also encouraged latin literacy throughout his kingdom. He thus provided a common language and writing style for communication across most of…

message exchanged. The warden is oblivious to the existence of a secret message. The medium mentioned in the problem above could be photographically produced microdots used by espionage agents during World War II, a Bacon cipher that uses different typefaces to hide information or a digitally altered JPEG image hide using Steg hide. In all the above-mentioned methods the priority is to hide messages in plain sight and make the carrier look…

The 1599 Geneva Bible was printed in London by Christopher Barker and deputies. It was not the first nor definitive edition, with 140 versions produced between 1560 and 1644. This attests to the text’s popularity amidst a fraught political and religious situation in the early modern period. Its publication has direct ties to Protestantism, particularly due to its creation by protestant Marian exiles. The text was published in England only following Archbishop Parker’s 1575 death, and then was…

For people that are computer-illiterate, simplest tasks such as writing a letter via email, could turn in a time-consuming burden. They would have to worry things like what program or browser to use to type the letter; what typeface to use and the font size; understand how to use any other additional features that could be available; and how to print it out. Before computers, we would just need paper and pen or even a typewriter, and just start writing. But now, all these “technical…
