Geist

i thought this was cool, i was cycling through various fonts 'typefaces' as they like to be called by fred yours truly, and i stumbled across a cool 'font' "Geist Knt" by Frederik Frede and looking a bit further i found out he was a rather kwl designer.looking further at the actual use of this font on a CD design for a band called "Al Haca". Check it out at frede.net, it pretty cool! it reminds me of the work i did the other week on creating a typeface from simple geometric forms, which i was rather proud of :) i'm going to try and make that font properly. I have no idea how but you can download a free font design program on dafont.com but it looks rather complicated. i'm going to try it on a pc first i darn't give it a go on a mac.

looking back at the other typefaces i have recently created i think this one looks remarkably similar to the one i designed based on the one i produced for the shape project, not that i knew about this font. i think its interesting how two different ways of looking at something can ultimately produce the same idea. sort of.
