Interrogating Type on World Graphic Design DayAGDA ACT will celebrate World Graphic Design Day, in Canberra this year by presenting "Dr Type", Dr Anthony Cahalan, "Interrogating Type".
Typefaces are essential to a designer's ability to communicate visually.
The late twentieth century witnessed the democratisation and internationalisation of typeface design and usage.
This was significantly due to the ease of access to desktop computer technology and a related exponential growth in the number of typefaces available to users of type.
Anthony Cahalan looks at the way designers and professional users of typefaces saw the type design industry from the inside.
He provides "snapshots in time" of typeface design. In his presentation for World Graphic Design Day 2006, he will share some of the fascinating outcomes from his research and will reflect on completing Australia's first PhD in the field of typography.
Come along and celebrate World Graphic Design Day with one of Australia's leading typographers, before it's too late!
