Slanted 40 - Experimental Type 2.0

Experiments are crucial for gaining experience and knowledge, and this issue of ‘Slanted’ exemplifies this by providing a glimpse into spaces that were explored by pushing conventions, limitations, and thoughts to new heights. It includes: ‘Tactile Realism’ where material properties are infused into typefaces; ‘Anti-Reader-Friendly’ typography; the disassembly and assembly of type in ‘Deliberate Imperfection & Serendipity’; ‘Coincidence & Intention’ where accidents are incorporated into the design process; the ‘Ever-Changing room’ that displays kinetic typography experiments; how writing becomes material in physical space in ‘Off the Screen’; and much more. This is a special edition reprint in black&white of issue 40.
