Tomorrow’s Typography

This talk explores recent work by Vera van de Seyp. She has been investigating in what ways emerging (AI) technologies could transform the way we shape and interact with typography, through computational prototypes that focus on different facets of type design. These experiments do not serve as alternatives for current type design tools (or type designers!), but rather aim to explore whether typographic shapes can be created and manipulated more intuitively and with different modes of expression.

This talk is scheduled to take place Friday, June 14, 2024, at 3:05pm New York time (EDT/UTC-4) as part of the main Typographics conference. Conference registration is required to attend in person.
