Pascal Glissmann just emailed us with his new project: fridayfonts.

“Since the common SND (Sunday Night Depression) usually already starts on Saturday morning, Friday has become the new Saturday in terms of favorite weekdays: so which name could better represent the playful attitude for these experiments in typography.”

Loads of typographic experiments, take a look!

From the first visuals featured on rock and roll record sleeves through
contemporary music videos and magazines, graphic design has played and
integral role in visualizing music.

For instance, Andy Warhol’s artwork for the Velvet Underground and Peter
Saville’s iconic Joy Division album covers are forever burned in our
collective cultural memory as images synonymous with the music.

“In An Expression of the Inexpressible” features contemporary international
designers whose work showcases the current interactions of music and
design.

This exhibition features art, graphic design and video works by Stefan
Sagmeister, Non-Format, Karlssonwilker, Mike Mills, Trevor Jackson,
Yokoland, Sara Haraigue, Mario Hugo, RD Granados, Stereotype Design,
Standard Motion, Si Scott, Sonnenzimmer, Roger Bova, Shannon McGlothin, Jean
Jullien, Hannah Waldron, Mike Little, Chris Rubino and Géraldine Georges.

Made possible with the generous support of: The Art Institute of
Indianapolis, Dean Johnson Gallery and AIGA Indianapolis

American Artifact: The Rise of American Rock Poster Art”, the documentary
about the history and resurgence of the American rock poster, unveils the
first six posters in a series of original movie posters being done for the
film.

The movie, which premieres in San Francisco on June 20th as part of The
Rock Poster Society’s “Rock Art By The Bay” event, features the artists
responsible for the movie posters in the film.

“It’s one of the most appropriate forms of promotion for this kind of
movie,” director Merle Becker commented, “and the response has been
overwhelming.”

Each poster is a limited edition, hand silk screened or letterpress
poster.

Other poster artists slated to do a movie poster for the film include
legendary rock poster artist Stanley Mouse, who is most well known for his
work with the Grateful Dead, contemporary rock poster artist Scrojo, and
“PNE”, the moniker for the collaborative efforts of EMEK, Justin Hampton,

and Jermaine Rogers. Their designs are to be revealed at the movie’s
premiere.

Videos featuring each artist, high resolution downloads of each poster, and
additional information about the movie can be found at:

Hypefortype has launched! Alex says: “It’s been a long struggle, a year long project in total from concept to completion. My ultimate ambition with HypeForType is to create a new and inspiring type foundry to showcase the best in todays typographic talent. It’s a place for designers and creatives to gain access and inspiration from truly original fonts. Not only do we have our first live exclusive volume with some tasty creations, we also have a back catalogue of over 200 individual typefaces. The foundry will constantly be updated, as we are looking to really keep things fresh. It’s been a very long road, but I am delighted to announce HFT open!”
