Sam at BLAG

Next at BLAG Meet (bl.ag/meet) We'll hear from the Crickx Research Group about their work investigating the life and work of 'typographic letterer' Chrystel Crickx.

I've previously shared the project at bl.ag online (bl.ag/peeling-back-the-layers-), and the Publi Fluor book (surfaces-utiles.org/publi-fluo) was one of those in 'Book Club' in BLAG 06 (bl.ag/06).

cc @incroyable_dls — please remind me who else from the group is on here please!

The enlightened rationalism that fueled the French Revolution is, for the most part, a very secular ideology.

Sure, there were firm believers of the revolutionary cause who also believed in God. But the intellectual class that lead the Revolution was primarily people who have abandoned organized religion, and later became hostile to the Church.

1/2

The secularism of the revolution demonstrates the remarkable political hegemony of the liberal middle class, which imposed its particular ideological forms on a much vaster movement of the masses. Age of Revolution 1789-1848 Eric Hobsbawm
If the intellectual leadership of the French Revolution had come only very slightly from the masses who actually made it, it is inconceivable that its ideology should not have shown more signs of traditionalism than it did. Age of Revolution 1789-1848 Eric Hobsbawm

[Reposting, as earlier message vanished when I tried an edit.]

I love the ampersand, not as a systematic tool but as a subtle inflection of my written voice.

I use it regularly but sparingly.

The ampersand is a sign of familiarity between friends. A tease, an indication of trust.

The ampersand is a flirt with the reader.

Sometimes that works, sometimes it doesn't. We live and learn.

Anyone need something pen-and-ink to focus on? Join my calligraphy guild's next workshop!

Wonderful instructor Judy Detrick will be teaching us a Dutch Masters script. It's a lightly gothic/somewhat secretary hand with tons of potential for wild flourishing and creative adaptation.

It's Tuesday mornings (Pacific) starting *today*, BUT recordings are available for SIX MONTHS!!

Details: portlandsocietyforcalligraphy.

Handmade book open to a two-page spread. Light brown kraft-color paper with flourished Dutch hand in black ink, with green and white illuminated detail on the capital at the start. Brown thread stitching in the center, with the off-white textured paper cover visible around the edges.
