ANRT
TypeMedia was on the road for a week February to attend the Automatic Type Design 3 conference organised by the ANRT in Nancy. Previous editions of this rare and highly focussed conference were so good that we knew we wanted to attend this one. Students from around Europe: MATD Reading, ECAL Lausanne, ESAD Amiens attended, as well as colleagues from around the world. And. so. many. TypeMedia alumni! Marte Verhagen showed her new extensions for RoboFont. Lena Le Pommelet and her colleague My-Lan Thuong introduced the research behind the Omni-Latin tool. Exhibition “Univers. From Light to Matter” curated by Tânia Raposo and Varya Goncharova.
