In early spring 2011 Hannes Famira is going to teach a class which goes by the above title, as part of the Type@Cooper certificate program at the Cooper Union. The dates are January 29 and 30 2011, 9 am – 4 pm.
Update (February 4, 2011):
Check out the photographs from the class.
Kombinat-Typefounders are proud to officially announce our support for the new web font format WOFF. We intend to start selling our complete retail library as soon as software to convert our fonts is made commercially available. We are also keeping a keen eye trained on the software industry's work on full browser support. At this point the type industry is scrambling to get up to speed on the recent developments and declare their support: typefoundries endorsing WOFF.

As we are taking baby steps toward a functional and convenient web site we have just added two new features to the navigation of the catalog section. On any page in the catalog, be it the specimens or the glyph set page, the user can now browse through all fonts simply by clicking the next font link in the navigation bar. The second feature we added is an optional list view on the font overview page. You can now also choose to see each font represented by the letter a or by the ampersand &.

Remember Ken Barber's beautiful Studio Lettering Collection? Well our friends over at House Industries have an ampersand t-shirt that will forcefully remove your socks. Also check out their mouse pad with the same motif.

If you used to love Typoman's adventures you will definitely recognize the style of these t-shirt designs we spotted over at Letterror. Erik van Blokland's illustrations put a witty spin on geeky tech themes like the eternally running webcam in an empty room or the peculiar fascination of sweet gadgets.
