Brand New Wood Type

How often do you get to say something like that? Matthew Carter designed Carter Latin, his first wood type back in 2002 and it has taken this long for the Hamilton Wood Type Museum to manufacture it. The process was recently accelerated by increased sophistication in laser cutting technology. The big unveiling happens November 20-22 at the Wayzgoose Weekend, a gathering of wood type aficionados.

Answer a few questions about your creative practice?

Designers, filmmakers, artists, writers: every day, we make decisions and take actions, large and small, that influence our lives and the world around us. What do you do, personally, that helps create meaning in your life and your work? What everyday habits do you cultivate?

Feel free to answer one or both of the questions above, in two sentences or less. Quotes may appear online and in my upcoming UCDA talk. Please let me know if I can use your name in my talk, or if you'd rather remain anonymous. --Joshua Berger, Creative Director, Plazm
