Typographic Swearing Workshop
Recording only
Available to watch until 15th March at midnight (GMT).
One ticket per person
The live event took place on February 14th 2021.
Come along to a typographically fun and rebelliously creative workshop where you can vent some frustration using fonts. This is an antidote to all the gooey cuteness of Valentine’s Day. You don’t need to bring a date to join in—everybody’s welcome.
Learn about rebellious typography through history. Explore the sounds that make swear words so satisfying. Subvert lettering to create your own typographic profanities.
Join author Sarah Hyndman to celebrate eight years of Type Tasting. It was launched on Valentine’s Day 2013 with a boozy evening of typographic swearing and cursing for friends, clients and journalists in the Type Tasting studio in an old chocolate factory in East London.
Suitable for all, no experience needed and you can join this virtual session from anywhere in the world.
You will need
• Scissors.
• Pencil, colouring pens or marker pens.
• Paper (white, coloured paper, wrapping paper or tracing paper).
• Magazine pages, newspapers, anything with large letters that you can cut up and collage with.
• Alphabet stencils, rubdown lettering or any other equipment you can use to create letters or typography (optional).
• Sticky tape, masking tape or a glue stick.
• Cardboard, a drawing board or something to put your paper on so you don’t damage your desk.
