News from Chank

Minneapolis, MN - 7 October 2009

News from Chank:

NEW FREEFONT: SARCASTIC ROBOT { MONOSPACED HANDWRITING }
Here's a new twist for a fixed-width font. How about a monospaced handwriting specimen, one that looks as if it was written by a robot with a sense of humor and humanity? Yeah, it's a bit odd, and a whole lot geeky, but the SARCASTIC ROBOT font is now ready for you. It's only free for about a week, so come get it now:

A SUNNY NEW SCRIPT FROM MID-AMERICA
How about a bright new cursive handwriting font? I've got one for you! It's by my latest, greatest intern, Ali Eickhoff, and it's a clean, lean, no-nonsense cursive handwriting font. Complete with ligatures and a few swash characters, for a bit of OpenType extra goodness. It's here:

DESIGN SMOKE WITH CHANK & SPUNK
My pal Jeff Johnson has been filming his exploits smoking and drinking with design luminaries on a video program called DESIGN SMOKE. I feel so flattered to be invited to be the sloppy subject of the latest episode. It's a weird 5-part video interview on the Mississippi Queen riverboat in Minneapolis. Now ready to view on the web, it starts here:
