Discoshar means Discoball

This is my little contribution to the fantastic recovering universe
called LETTERS OP MAAT by the great @Sed4tives about the typographic world of the dutch artist and typographer Jurriaan Schrofer. Btw, I sincerely apologize to @Sed4tives for the undue delay and the time it took to publish this exciting addition to his magnificent series (I'm sure he thought I'd forgotten, didn't he, comp4ñero?). Hope you like and enjoy these two fonts in one.

GUIDE TO FIND GLYPHS:

- Curved left unicase: A to Z + Ç, Ñ, Æ, Œ.

- Curved right unicase: a to z + ç, ñ, æ, œ.

- Curved left numbers: 0 to 9.

- Curved right numbers: for 0 type %, 1=<, 2= =, 3=>, 4=[, 5=], 6={, 7=|, 8=}, 9=^.

- Other curved left glyphs like ., , , ”, ’, ', ?, !, @, $, &, (, ) and -: in their own glyphs, plus :=/.

- Other curved right glyphs: ”=“, ’=‘, '=", @=*, &=#, -=+, .=:, ,=;, $=`,:=\, ?=¿, !=¡, (=_, )=~...

... The work still in progress (diacritics in the oven)...

Every printable character in the strict 7-bit ASCII set, with handy decimal, octal and binary numerical codes attached (no hexadcimal, as it involves letters ;-)

this was more a concept than a style Idk

also this is like the only thing I could come up with that was remotely related to the competition. 

A - 4     C - ©     E - 3     G - &     I - 1     O - 0     R - ®     S - $     Y - ¥     Z - 2    a - @     b - 6     c - ¢     g - 9     s - 5     t - +

Last week my beloved iMac stopped working for good. It's been more than a decade of a fantastic relationship, but now I have to accept the fact that it won't be with me anymore... With that in mind, I've collected  these vintage Mac icons, most (maybe all) made by the great Susan Kare in the best 80's. Curiously, you will see that many of them have remained until today with very few modifications, but others (that dot matrix printer, those faxes, those floppy disks...) have definitely passed into the History. I remember with particular displeasure the d***  Bomb, which appeared unexpectedly  when the computer crashed -too frecuently- and you then lost all the work not saved manually. Freaky old times. My favourite character still being Clarus, the dogcow (at the Z, of course). Hope you like them.

This font idea popped into my head when I came across this YouTube video about segmented displays. The "X-O" LCD idea was the most fascinating to me and I challenged myself to try remaking it... and ended up completely revamping it to include "lowercase" letters, and improve legibility (for the most part)

Test font. Used less than 64 blocks. May expand to a full font later.

110521. Opening day of the Marvel Eternals movie! Loving Phase 4 in the Marvel Cinematic Univese. This pentaline display typeface inspired by the movie logo (Caesar Font) has some limited kerning, with sparkly caps. 

Opening Day of Marvel's Shang-Chi movie!!!! It's Marvel's first solo Asian superhero movie and it takes place in the SF Bay Area? Sign me up! Couldn't miss posting this today, although it was running late. Also coming off an Avenger's high after spending a week in Disneyland's Avenger's Campus. 

Inspired by digital audio meters.
