Only a fraction of the history of literacy has been typographic.
The aim of every typographic work - the delivery of a message in the shortest, most efficient manner.
Typography is a hidden tool of manipulation within society. All schools should be teaching typography; we should be fundamentally aware of how typographic language is forming out assholes.
For me, typography is a triangular relationship between design idea, typographic elements, and printing technique.
Typographic man can express but is helpless to read the configurations of print technology.
