Come learn about Alternative Typographic Histories with us this Summer 🟠🟣 Taught by Hind Al Saad @hindgalsaad & Levi Hammett #LeviHammett

What if the evolution of language technology had followed a non-western centric path? ⇣⇣

[School For Poetic Computation @sfpc]

🍋☀️ This summer we bring two classes that challenge the technologies used everyday by creating new ways to engage with them, from alternative typographic machines with @hindgalsaad & #LeviHammett to experiments in networked performance with @toddwords & @ngonngonTiri 🍋☀️

If the army of any other regime was to raid one of the world’s holiest sites, ransack it, shoot rubber bullets, tear gas the worshippers inside, and assault medics on camera, it would be all over intentional news. But Israelis get a pass. It’s “complicated.” Colonial impunity.

final class at @sfpc this terms 😭 -- so happy to have spent the semester teaching with @hindgalsaad @murilopolese @eaviles and with this lovely / thoughtful group

[zach lieberman @zachlieberman]

it's also a reminder about serendipity, that finding an artist book in the bookstore or a paper that uses new terms can open up doors. the class is about the techniques of recreation and that act of looking, but also about being open to moments of serendipity with art.

[zach lieberman @zachlieberman]

my favorite class of the semester is bring your own artist (BYOA) for recreation -- I get so inspired seeing the different voices people bring into the room.

This is my very favorite print ever @hindgalsaad @Lukedemarest

Norman Pritchard (1939–1996) was a member of the Umbra poets, a collective of Black writers in Manhattan's Lower East Side founded in 1962. His visual poems and jazz poetry recordings leveraged unconventional methods like playful typography and audio experimentation. ⁣⁣⁣

The Noigandres Group was made up of Brazilian poets Haroldo and Augusto de Campos and Decio Pignatari who set out with an ambitious dream: to change literature by creating a universal picture language that could be read by all and could dissolve linguistic and political barriers.
