more gridfont5 - thanks

YESSSS!!!
i like            the INternet
thanks to 

Jacob Broms Engbloom

for gently nudging me towards @font-face
i had read about it a long time ago, but never thought about
simple solution and I made a sample for fun... will post more as I make some other fonts - this one is quite old now, and 
i want something different right now

revisiting gridfont5

a couple years ago I was experimenting with font development as a way of creating a special drawing based character set
the idea was that
with a font of this type, you could essentially transform any existing text into a drawing
i made about 6 in total 
experimented with them in layout design software - i have some examples here and there but lazy to find them right now

|       |        ||||||||   \\\\\
also could be applied to a webpage, but I stopped at that idea because the font would have to be 
dl'd in some way.... was reading a little about how they might be embedded.... etc etc etc
|        |
it just dawned on me to try applying the font in a user style sheet
now the goal will be to to develop more of these fonts, then create some sort of add-on for a browser or else 
just distribute them as a font package.... let me know if you are interested in helping out!

Internet Pavilion Interview in gridfont (outdated version)

the actual text can be found at the Biennale Breaks New Ground: Inaugurating the Internet Pavilion interview on the Art21 Blog... for fun since an old post of mine is part of the Wikipedia Art remixes that are part of the Internet Pavilion that is discussed in the interview.

wikipediaart-gridfont5 (a remix)

A remix of the Wikipedia Art page. The project website describes a conceptual artwork that lives within the context of a Wikipedia entry. Their entry was deleted quickly sparking a lot of conversation about why a conceptual art project shouldn't be in an encylcopedia. For fun, I've remixed the site with an even more subjective stance... a personalized font face. What is objective/subjective? What is Wikipedia ?
