🧠 What if the secret to creativity is... misspelling words?
In Ep 2, @simplebits joins us again to talk about:
→ Naming fonts “Turbo” (but make it wrong on purpose)
→ LEGO-built logos
→ Puppets, orange peelers, and imposter syndrome
It’s the creative constraint episode you didn’t know you needed 🎧

Podcast with Spencer about the new Wilco font!
Yesterday we released Wilco Loft Sans—our collaboration with the amazing @wilco. Today we revive the podcast! I chat with drummer, author & creative force @Spencertweedy who spearheaded the font project. I had a blast talking drums, fonts, and creativity.

Immediate purchase to hang in the office. So great to mis-interpret in the context of shipping software.
Don’t give up the ship. A new wood type print: simplebits.shop/products/cop…

Psst: We just released new Rough styles for Parkly, our typeface inspired by vintage, WPA National Parks posters. It comes in 3 widths and it’s fun to mix those up for a wood type-y vibe. All-caps, numerals, basic punctuation. 6 styles included!

It’s almost Spring here in New England. We’re very much looking forward to all things salt water. On it, in it, around it. It’s (always been) a long winter. #shipswhistlefont

I try to leave “troll views” alone but this right here is out of line af. Actually what is wrong w music is people choking the life out of music like an Instagram filter—-trying to reach a high of music perfection that doesn’t even serve the song (or music)
Dan Cederholm retweeted
Sneaking some swashy alternate caps in the forthcoming Italic and Rough styles for #shipswhistlefont Bonus points if you can name the artist who’s song is in this list.
