Slanted Experimental Type 3.0: Typography Meets Technology & Social Commentary ✨

This new released book pushes the boundaries of typography, blending AI-generated fonts, variable typefaces, and unconventional design methods. Developed with students from Dortmund University, this third edition explores the intersection of typography, technology, and social impact.

More than just a visual showcase, the book serves as a manifesto, questioning not only typographic norms but also broader societal and conceptual boundaries.

"Typography is the visual form of our languages; languages influence our thinking and create cultural commonalities but also differences." – Andreas Ruhe

With its mix of bold experimentation and deep cultural reflection, this book is a must-read for designers who want to challenge the status quo of type.
