LANGESOMMER Workshop Hebräisch

LANGESOMMER: Hebräische Kalligrafie

Das hebräische Alef-bet ist das Alphabet des antiken und modernen Hebräisch und eines der ältesten noch verwendeten. In Zusammenarbeit mit dem Jüdischen Museum Berlin gab der Workshop von LANGESOMMER Einblicke in die hebräische Kalligrafie und Schrift. Gemeinsam mit Amichai Green vom Jüdischen Museum, lernten die TeilnehmerInnen, hebräische Buchstaben mit einer Feder zu schreiben und damit Duktus und Schönheit der hebräischen Kalligrafie kennenzulernen.

Happenings at TYPO – Feel The Rhythm

Us is a de-centralized design collective that explores non-traditional methods of process and collaboration. In response to this year’s theme of rhythm, they have set up an interactive workshop where conference attendees generate hand crafted poster art by working within (and against) established parameters, taking inspiration from the elements provided while exercising creative liberty to remix and re-imagine.

Lettering vs. Calligraphy Live

On Thursday at 8 p.m. the ring is cleared at TYPO Hall. Martina Flor, lettering artist appears on the one side and Giuseppe Salerno, calligrapher, on the other.

For over half a year they run the online battle Lettering vs. Calligraphy. Each day Martina draws and Giuseppe writes one letter. The letter is chosen by both of them, its attribute by different guest specialists. Many of them are not-so-unknown type-related professionals or calligraphy artists from all over the world like Jan Middendorp, Nina Stössinger, Stephen Coles or Nate Williams, to name just a few. Visitors of the site can vote for their favourites.

Hands-on-practice with Design Werkstatt and TwoPoints.net

Workshops and hand-on-practice is a big topic for TYPO conferences. Unfortunately we can’t always cover the workshops we want to do – ‘cause who wants to go to a day-long-workshop when you’ve paid to see a whole day of inspiring talks? Well, no one really. That’s why we concentrated on offering short introductive exercise classes.

If you want to dive deeper into communication design, we can strongly recommend going to Design Werkstatt’s Berlin workshop, that’s going to happen the days before TYPO Berlin.
