Digital open lecture on typography
About typography as bridge builder between different graphic expressions
Fono-Type is a visual representation of the spoken language in North Africa and highlights the close link between typography and language. In a digital lecture, Walid Bouchouchi now talks about the work with the alphabet and about typography that he describes as follows:
"I'm hoping to build bridges between different systems of graphic expression, it develops a multilingual and multi scriptural visual language, composed from several languages and alphabets, in which different cultures coexist."
