Workshops

After Gerard’s workshop, it was time for Fiona Ross to get on stage. And what an entry!

The first workshop was on Arabic scripts and typefaces. After some basic infos about the writing system, we had to play with these new shapes for our western eyes (excpet Deema!). Very soon after, Fiona made her second workshop on the Indian scripts… what a mess! India is a huge playground where you exchange your script, whatever language you are speaking with. I focus at the beginning on the Devanagari and the Bengali scripts with the very helpful attention of Little Buddha Spring. What a delight then, to listen to Fiona read the few lines I wrote!

Easy rule: Guess what’s what?

About

We thought: hey, wouldn’t it be neat if all the MATD students could have a place to blog all together, maybe even aggregating their personal blogs? We thought of possible domain names, but 4 letters domain names are impossible, so here we are: emayteedee.org is where the action will be. Keep checking this place, interesting stuff will eventually happen!
