New concept in readability. Neology

Neology This typeface has been designed to demonstrate a hypothesis: Consistency in letter form and style is not essential to fluent reading. Possibility: controlled variation of glyph forms is optimal. Shinntype

Two harmonized styles, geometric (art deco) and grotesque, have been combined in one font. Diversity is favored in many areas, particularly for activities which extend over time. Human physiology and mentality balk at the prospect of the straight road, the assembly line, the prison cell. We are designed to respond to stimuli which varies; inertia makes for invisibility. Perhaps this is why the old style types, with their complexity of form, are still preferred for book work. The idea that a character should always be represented by a single glyph is an economy of the foundry type era. It also expresses the reductive ideology of modernism, but that too is in the past. New technology OpenType has made possible new practicalities, hence Neology.

Neology Medium Two harmonized styles, geometric (art deco) and grotesque, have been combined in one font, which chooses the glyph for each text character from either subset, in a pseudo-random manner.

HOW TO USE THE FONTS Neology 1. Waltz, bad nymph, for quick jigs vex! The default sets every other character in the alternate glyph (plus no repeats within five characters). Neology 2.. Waltz, bad nymph, for quick jigs vex! By introducing one extra character at the beginning (here, a period), everything shifts one unit and glyphs alternate accordingly. Neology Deco 3. Waltz, bad nymph, for quick jigs vex! The Deco setting is achieved by deselecting Contextual Alternates in the OpenType menu, or with a Neology Deco font. Neology Grotesque 4. Waltz, bad nymph, for quick jigs vex! The Grotesque setting is achieved by selecting Stylistic Set 1 in a Neology font, or with a Neology Grotesque font.

Compare Neology s readability with that of its constituent styles

Compare Neology s readability with that of its constituent styles Neology It is tempting to think of reading as two independent processes that occur concurrently: (1) the utilitarian task of decoding text, to which is attached (2) an aesthetic veneer of style that conveys meta qualities, positioning the document in its own niche within the vast edifice of culture and commerce. But there are other, functional reasons for type style. Each face is also a formally engineered system with its own visual syntax and vocabulary, a unique strategy for crafting letters to flow and fit in myriad combinations, in which any sequence exhibits optimal readability. Thus it becomes apparent that in many respects, for type design, aesthetics IS function. There is speculation that, given the physical nature of eye and alphabet, and the measurability of reading speed, an ideal font architecture may be computed. Such one-size-fits-all ideology is at odds with humanity.

NEOLOGY ADDRESSES SEVERAL RECENT SHINNTYPE THEMES

Neology addresses several recent Shinntype themes The physiology of reading Scientific research into the nature of reading invariably utilizes default fonts. But if research is to have any bearing on typography, new faces must be created with variants designed explicitly to test hypotheses thereby isolating typographic qualities rather than confounding them amongst the many different attributes of different typefaces. The premise of Neology is that the reader processes only as much detail of a glyph as is necessary to decode it. Because the fovea subtends a tiny angle of vision in each saccadic rest, only three or four glyphs are observed concurrently with any acuity. It matters not that details of a letter may vary between saccades, because if such differences do not occur in the same visual grab, they will not register; for memory and analysis would be required to make such a distinction. Pseudo-random contextuality With the introduction of OpenType, the Contextual Alternates feature was used to encode the joining conventions of calligraphy, for which it was devised. However, other uses have emerged, one of which is to create a pseudo-random effect simulating the pleasantly organic quality of casual lettering and writing. Shinn has designed two such faces, Duffy Script and Fontesque Pro. In Duffy there are four sets of glyphs for each character, but the code in Fontesque Pro was refined to work with just two, as the same letter never occurs more than twice in succession in any language. This is the code used for Neology. The design axis in type families The standard design axes within a typeface family are weight, slant, and horizontal scale, to which may be added optical scaling. Megafamilies have gone further, with serif and sans serif defined as related styles. Shinn has explored yet other design axes in various types: Handsome. A handwriting typeface rendered in half a dozen nib styles. Panoptica. More of an alphabet than a typeface, by virtue of its unicase plus monowidth premise. Almost any type style may be rendered in the Panoptic mode. Shinntype has published seven. Eunoia. Three interpretations of the condensed, high contrast, geometric genre: Art Deco, Op Art and Techno. Sense and Sensibility. Located on an axis close to the extremes of geometric and humanist, this sans serif superfamily is the precursor to Neology. To create the Neology effect, Sense and Sensibility were at first combined, but this method was dismissed as ad hoc and lacking in rigor. Instead, the two components of Neology were designed from scratch in styles that specifically engage its raison d être, harmonized in weight, contrast and vertical proportion, with the conceit extending throughout the complete character set. However, about half the glyphs are common: only those characters which exhibit categoric structural differences between the classic grotesque and geometric forms (e.g. Helvetica and Futura, see right) have been provided with alternates, mere variation in proportion not being considered especially relevant to the business of character recognition. Helvetica Futura Neology (both) Fig. 1. Where the difference between grotesque and geometric archetypes is a question of proportion, the glyphs are identical in both Neology variants. Helvetica Futura Neology (both) Fig. 2. Where the difference is a matter of fundamental structure, the glyphs in Neology Grotesque and Neology Deco observe that distinction.

The Deco and Grotesque styles are also available as separate fonts, each containing only a single set of glyphs.

Monetary symbols follow the same arrangement. 1100 1100 Tabular & proportional figures The default figures are tabular; their one has a baseline crossbar, which is absent in the proportional version. + Minus & arrows Minus and en-dash have identical glyphs. Arrows are aligned with dashes, and have the same thickness, enabling extension. egg egg 999 999 Doubles According to the theory behind Neology, doubled letters with differing glyphs can disrupt reading. But does the typographer wish to avoid this situation or let it stand? Either is possible: the default differentiates, hence egg or egg. Stylistic Set 2 will negate this, doubling the glyph, hence egg or egg ; similarly, this feature will homogenize multiple repeated figures, e.g. 9999 > 9999.
