The latest issue of IdN Magazine is a special “font promotional issue” featuring some interesting interviews with foundries who are greying the lines between type design and graphic design like Cape Arcona and Misprinted Type.
The interviews give a unique view into the thought process behind some progressive independent foundries. Pick up a copy if you get a chance, even if just for the fonts included on the accompanying DVD.

The website shows a “font” with animated icons in the tradition of picture languages.
If you type “woman” you get the pictogram; if you type “happy” you get a animagram (animated pictogram) …and so on.
It works already in the MSN-Messenger form Microsoft.
But it could be transferred to mobiles and e-mail clients.
