    The Hand Is Mightier Than the Font
    Friday, August 24, 2007
    Steven Heller interviews Bernard Maisner over on the AIGA website, in which Maisner says:

    "Calligraphy is here to stay in the same way that some people know Latin, that there are 'colonial villages,' that some people play LPs on 'record players,' that some artists paint using glazes in the manner that Hans Holbein did, and how some photographers still use emulsion film in their cameras. Hand lettering is a little more alive in that it is more flexible and more easily interpretable in a modern way than the traditional styles of calligraphy."

    Go feast your eyes and feed your brain. It will round off your week quite nicely, thank you.
    Thanks, Aegir
