NEMESI is a typeface that can not be read by the computer. In the field of digital recognition of text, today's machines are able to identify and convert text displayed inside of complex images. Knowing that this new consumer of written text is able to see what humans write, how will typography change in the future?
After finding out which shapes are hostile to Optical Character Recognition technology and realizing a typeface with them, I produced a paper publication to show my discoveries. A digital interaction followed: two twitter bots try to communicate by using the NEMESI typeface (Mentor: Leonardo Angelucci).
NEMESI is one of the 30 selected projects of the Junge Grafik award 2021. Credits for the last picture go to Verein Junge Grafik: picture taken during the Junge Grafik exhibition at Weltformat 2021.
