SUMMARY:Introduction to Modern Type Design
DESCRIPTION:with Kel Troughton \n  \nDuring this 10-week online workshop\, which meets on Wednesday evenings from January 31–April 10 (no class on February 21)\, you will create your own original typefaces as you gain an understanding of the methodologies and software used to produce high-quality digital type. \nThe primary goal of this workshop is to show you how to systematically think about type and help you successfully make a font. We will focus on techniques and best practices for designing and spacing type\, introducing you to the conceptual foundations of type design\, including proofing and testing work. You will work in the Glyphs App throughout the week and upload homework before each meeting for review. Throughout the workshop you will learn various lessons about type\, history\, sketching\, and get weekly feedback on your type projects. \nThis workshop is suitable for designers just starting to think about type and for designers with some type design experience\, hoping to hone their skills and processes. Some experience with drawing Bézier curves (in Adobe Illustrator\, for instance) and with typography is recommended but not required. This is a great course for anyone interested in applying for a spot in Type West’s Postgraduate Certificate Program in Type Design. \nA free temporary license for Glyphs App will be made available to all participants. The class is capped at fifteen students to allow for one-on-one instruction.

SUMMARY:California and Reframing the Making of a Modern U.S. West
DESCRIPTION:A central theme of Making a Modern U.S. West by Sarah Deutsch is the question of what would constitute a modern U.S. and whose vision would define the West and the nation. Modernity for some meant corporate consolidation\, capital intensive agriculture\, white supremacy\, male-headed families and private individual land-holding. For others\, modernity could include racial mixing\, transnational mobility\, economic democracy\, and collective ownership of land. Californians ran the full spectrum of these ideas—they fought over redwoods and irrigation\, they speculated on land and oil\, they fought over the border and who belonged on which side\, and even over who should get a say in all those things—and in doing so\, they helped define modernity for the region and the nation. \nThis presentation will address some of those issues as well as how the author tried to corral these unwieldy decades into a single volume. \nA virtual presentation by Sarah Deutsch\, author and professor of history\, Duke University

SUMMARY:Editors Helping Editors
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our “Editors Helping Editors” meeting. Bring your problems\, big and small\, as well as your thinking caps. We’ll work together to solve event-goers quandaries and questions\, which could range from common questions like how to find clients in a particular field (say academic editing) to more situation-specific issues like why a particular macro isn’t working in Word. The only topic that’s off limits is setting rates\, as that can be seen as price-fixing. However\, we can talk about rate-adjacent topics\, such as tools and data we use when setting rates\, what counts as a tax write-off\, and how/when to raise rates. \nThis event is now open to all editors and will not be recorded.

SUMMARY:Editing with Disability/Illness/Neurodivergence
DESCRIPTION:This afternoon chat centers people who work as editors and are living with disability\, chronic illness\, and/or neurodivergence. It is open to everyone. The idea was partly inspired by an active peer group currently hosted by the Society of Authors (https://www.societyofauthors.org/Groups/Authors-Disabilities-Illnesses-Network). \nGroup agreements that will be open for discussion at the start of the chat:\n* Disclosure (of illness/disability/etc.) is welcome. Disclosure is not required.\n* There are no requirements. We participate (or not) in the ways that work for us.\n* We take care of ourselves. Stretch\, eat\, drink\, take a break\, etc.\n* We can’t be articulate all the time. We give each other the benefit of the doubt and ask questions.\n* We keep confidentiality: Learning goes\, stories stay. \nThe online chat this Thursday will have an open agenda\, loosely focused on work-life: How do we define\, handle\, and sustain our work as editors. What kinds of projects are a good fit? How do we obtain enough but not too much work (if that is even possible in editing!)? What have we learned and what can we learn from each other? \nThis event is free to attend and open to all editors.

SUMMARY:Mud\, Blood\, and Ghosts: Populism\, Eugenics\, and Spiritualism in the American West
DESCRIPTION:An archive survives to be revived. The archive as a limit\, a thing in a box\, is always also an opening. It opens on losses sustained\, harms inflicted\, the tenacity of survival\, and on the persistence of lineages both proud and shameful. But what is it to approach an archive\, to unlock the cabinet\, lift the top off the box\, to begin to read? It is to invite a haunting\, which nevertheless begins long before we open any books. And to invite the ghosts into the open\, one must be ready to hear what they teach. \nReading from her new book\, Mud\, Blood\, and Ghosts\, and screening a short film by Carolina Ebeid that engages archival images\, Julie Carr will tell the story of her great-grandfather\, Omer Madison Kem\, a settler in Nebraska\, a founding member of the Populist Party\, a three-term Congressman\, a practicing spiritualist\, and an avid eugenicist. Kem’s final years were spent in Oregon where he owned a power company and became a passionate advocate for the forced sterilization of all those he came to believe were “unfit” to breed. This talk will focus on the ties between the American eugenics movement\, American populism\, and the American West. \nA virtual presentation by Julie Carr\, author and professor of English\, University of Colorado\, Boulder

SUMMARY:How to Fall in Love With Typography
DESCRIPTION:Ellen Lupton wrote the classic textbook Thinking with Type. Researching the all-new third edition of this book meant questioning everything. What assumptions are baked into the English-speaking design vocabulary? How can type education become more forgiving? What stories lurk behind basic forms such as grids\, capital letters\, reverse stress\, and typographic widows? Thinking with Type\, Third Edition drops in March 2024 (Princeton Architectural Press). This talk will offer some tips\, tools\, and insights for working with type.

SUMMARY:Pianel Binding Workshop
DESCRIPTION:by Coleen Curry \n  \nThe Pianel binding is a modern twist on binding structures that use metal rods at the joint\, more commonly known as piano hinges. The ‘Pianel’ structure designed by Ben Elbel uses the piano hinge as a main structural and visual feature with the piano hinge tucked away in a neat\, nifty construction\, leaving only two clean vertical lines on the outside separating the spine and boards. Shiny dots of polished brass rods complete the head and tail. \nThe process behind the result is simple but requires precision and planning. The book is a flat back with two paper covers\, however the structure can be made with leather or cloth. Careful attention to detail and precision is essential.
