Chapter 7 - Typographic Technology
Chapter 7 is all about typographic technology. In the beginning, it mentions how the invention of typography has been called the beginning of the Industrial Revolution. Then it mentions how typographic design has been closely bound to the evolution of technology. This chapter mentions typesetting machines such as the Monotype and the Ludlow. Typography design then evolved with the digital computer. I thought this chapter was interesting because typography design has really evolved today. Now we use it in photoshop, illustrator and indesign. Because of these software technologies, we are able to create really complex and very cool looking typographical artforms.
