This is pretty much like the last one, except almost like a non-glitchy version. uppercase melts to the left, lower melts to the right, numbers melt to the center.

Just a bunch of letters as small as possible. Still learning.

I've been sketching out a visual alphabet for the robot characters that I draw. This is my first attempt at trying to make something worthwhile.
The letters very loosely represent the Latin equivalent. Typed out, it looks like the bar code on checks.

This is a teaching exercise in the art of brick stacking (The merging and overlaying of two or more Fontstruct bricks to create an entirely new brick).
The rules were pretty tight as well.
1. Only use one grid space block (except M & W).
2. Make it as readable as possible.
3. Be Creative.
4. Brick stack each character.
The full set turned out fairly readable and worked good with some characters but not good with others.
My particular favourite is Capital 'H' which took 6 bricks to create!

I can see I'm on a hiding to nothing with that damned cap "S". The lower case s is -- sort of-- acceptable, but it will be a miracle if I can avoid an ugly transition between angles in the x-bar.
So near and yet so far. All the cap single bowled letters could do with a more curvaceous aspect. If I manage to beat the "S" into shape I might have to take on the challenge.
Talk about a sucker for punishment.This is a clone

The Resolution font is designed as a conceptual piece of work, complementing my research in the cognitive and graphic aspects of type. I began working with this form in the summer of 2011 by creating the symbols which would fit into a certain matrix and consist of as little square pixels as possible, thus approaching the conceptual and peceptual boundaries of legibility. After Resolution 3x4 I went further and designed Resolution 3x3, which is even more closer to the limit of legibility than 3x4.
There is an important aspect in such minimalistic and conceptual approach–-it is the similarity of these types with the weaving patterns, which can be traced back to many archaic European cultures. The Resolution font makes a tribute to these original, pre-alphabetic systems of information encoding through weaving patterns.
At the same time Resolution font is made to emphasize the importance of square pixel as a structural and conceptual limit of digital reality, which comes to an end when a certain resolution is reached. It applies both to visual encoding of information (with pixel as a graphic building block) and the structure of information proper (the true-false logic). Instead of creating the illusion of continuity, Resolution font is about being aware of the media and digital (and thus quantized) nature of an image which is falsely perceived as continuous.

Clone of NCD Brick Stacker (One Grid).
I'm sure this must have been done before. This is basically better looking and therefore more usable version of One Grid. Although not so much Brick Stacking needed for this font. Please see NCD Brick Stacker (One Grid) for Brick Stacking technique.This is a clone of NCD Brick Stacker (One Grid)

My first proper attempt at a fontstruct - uses just a 2x2 grid pattern and no stacking.

I guess something like this has been done a thousand times. But I did it again.

This is basically an extreme version of 7x12 Pixel Mono, by CMunk. The only difference is that most of the letters are only four pixels high, and it's only capitals. This font includes Basic Latin, More Latin, Extended Latin A&B, Greek and Coptic, Cyrillic, Hebrew, Bopomofo, and Even More Latin. I had to guess with most of the Even More Latin characters, as most of them were displayed as squares (indicating that the specific letter is not included in your computer's font). Enjoy!

Back after a short absence, this is a tribute to simplicity, with some neurone influence.

a experiment to see what a font would look like without any lines inside the font (i don't know the technical term). some of the glyphs are identical. it only really works in sentences.
