Ave Maria

A font in the style of the [retro]futuristic typeface seen in the 1981 movie "Outland". There are a few variations that appear in the film but this most closely resembles the almost square aspect ratio as seen in the opening credits.

The ^ caret character is an upward pointing arrow, and is shown in the movie. This is correct based on the old ASCII-1963 standard, where ^ and _ were an upward and leftward pointing arrow, respectively.

I don't believe this font actually matches any specific contemporary terminal from the mid 70s to early 80s, I believe it was done custom for the movie. It is clearly inspired by the character set from several terminals.

One notable feature of the font (shared with several CRT terminals in the 1970s and 1980s) is that no more than 8 adjacent vertical rows within the 7*x10 character cell can be active at any given point. The 'block cursor' violates this, but the circuitry to display that was separate from the circuitry to read the character ROM and shift it vertically.

* Technically the character is 8 pixels wide, but if the 8th/leftmost pixel is set, it will apparently also appear as the rightmost '9th' pixel in the inter-character column, which is undesirable.This can be seen in the custom character set in the movie used for the country outlines during the "UNITED STATES" "SOVIET UNION" "WHICH SIDE DO YOU WANT?" scene. (Either that, or this was an accidental error during creation of those custom characters for the movie.)

The movie also often uses an "overline" character in order to underline the row above, and this occupies an entire row of characters on screen when this happens. Is this the true 'shape' of the underline character?

Clone of Alex Murphy Solid. Inspired by the RoboCop movie logos, this version is specially spaced to line up in combination with the "Alex Murphy Outline" font for graphic design purposes (Inset + Outline).  As always, for dingbats of OCP logos, see the "Alex Murphy Dings" font.

August 10, 2021 update: Font at version 2.0.  Diagonals and lowercase crossbars were thickened, and diagonals now cross into the vertical strokes. Now more movie accurate than ever!

Welcome to the Future...

Dramatics aside, QUANTUM is a visual display typeface designed to convey one cyberpunk future out of many.

It is intended to be built as a monospaced font (however, spacing errors occurred, and it is a faux-monospace as a result), made on a 9x10 pixel grid out of a personal fascination with the vision of the cyberpunk future  according to the 90s and a desire to capture the "spirit" of the original Sony PlayStation. One of the leading sources of inspiration is the work by The Designers Republic (tDR).

This typeface not only features Latin characters, but also Cyrillic, Greek, and even a few Coptic characters for good measure (in hopes of easing in the old world into the future)

Trying my hand at another movie logo font, inspired by the terrific posters for 1981's "Escape From New York".  Kern at your own peril.
