    Inflection Point Emigre Published in 1989, Emigre magazine’s eleventh issue, Ambition/Fear: Graphic Designers and the Macintosh Computer, contains vivid artifacts of a discipline’s first encounter with digital tools. From the aesthetics of bitmaps to the expressive interventions made possible by new access to typesetting controls, not to mention the self- publishing venture of the magazine itself, this issue combines modernist and postmodern agendas in a model construction of text-based community. Looking closely at Emigre #11, and more passingly at later issues, this article analyses the technical, critical, and cultural production that would shape Emigre as a medium for typographic demonstration and discussion among peers. Emigre #11 Ambition/Fear, 1989 32 pages, 11.25 x 16.75 inches, plus poster, 22.25 x 32.5 inches. Edition of 6,000. Emily McVarish Printed at Lompa Printing, Albany, CA.

  • The Evolution of Symbols Have Influ- Enced the Letterforms We Use Today
    The evolution of symbols have influ- enced the letterforms we use today. They played a prominent role in communication from recording infor- mation, representing ideas, and expressing ourselves. Pictograms Pictures of an object in the physical world. Some scholars say cave paintings could be considered one of the earliest forms of graphic communication; for instance, these could be hunt- ing instructions. Ideograms Simplified or stylized pictograms. Symbols made of geometric shapes to represent an idea. Phonograms Symbols or signs representing primary sounds. The Phoeni- cians developed a set of 22 symbols. Greek Alphabet The Phoenician alphabet was adapted by the Greeks, it was the first to have distinct letters for vowels as well as consonants Roman Alphabet Romans adopted the Greek alphabet and fashioned several more distinctive letters. Belief in important religious texts promoted the production of books. Nearly all books, Illuminated Manu- scripts, were written in monasteries, by scribes who were production letterers. Illuminated Manuscripts Books were objects of value and contained elaborate orna- mentation. Illustrated initials were painstakingly designed. Monks could devote a lifetime to a single manuscript. Parchment was being replaced by the invention and availability of paper. Wooden blocks of type stamps were being replaced with letterforms cast in steel. The increased demand for books, in- cluding the growth of universities, moved book craft from the monastery to production facilities. Invention of Printing Movable type was perfected by Johannes Gutenberg in Germany in the 15th century. For the first time, a technical system of mass production was applied to publishing. Each metal alphabet character could be hand-cast in great quanti- ties.

Conceiver of such exhibitions as “Safe: Design Takes on Risk,” “Humble Masterpieces: Everyday Marvels of Design,” and “Design and the Elastic Mind,” Paola Antonelli, senior curator in the Architecture and Design department at the Museum of Modern Art, New York, seamlessly integrates 2-D and 3-D design in a standard-setting manner. Over the last year she has further pushed the museum forward into the digital age by acquiring for MoMA’s design collection the @ sign and, just recently, 23 digital typefaces.
