More Meaningful Typography Tim Brown (Ampersand conference 2011)
Why do we make the specific typesetting decisions we make? Does it matter what our reasons are? Have we considered everything? Should we do more research? What should we study? Is our typographic sensitivity sharp enough? Is it appropriate to improvise? How can we make the best use of our time? In this talk Tim will share his answers to these questions and, most of all, his thoughts on how those answers inform practical decisions. Fulfilling our potential as typographers is a matter of challenging ourselves, channeling our influences, curating wisdom, and practicing in meaningful ways.

The Future of CSS Typography John Daggett (Ampersand conference 2011)
This talk will focus on efforts to improve typographic support in CSS. Beyond just defining the @font-face rule, new properties in the CSS3 Fonts module provide explicit control over kerning, ligatures, small-caps and a variety of features commonly available in OpenType fonts. These features will allow designers to solve a number of basic typographic problems in a much more elegant way than previously was possible. How these new properties evolved and some of the design problems involved will be discussed in detail. The problem of consistent rendering across browsers and the effect of that on both font and web design will also be discussed.

Adventures in Letterdrawing for Crude Media, & Co David Berlow (Ampersand conference 2011)
The presentation will entertain and educate the audience through three non-technical quests; the design of serif fonts that work for small uses on the web, the taking back of ALL CAPS from the realm of shouting, and designing amidst the perils of internationalism. The first third of the presentation is looking for clues in the basic nuts and bolts of type for small sizes, and type for few pixels, the two converging issues on letterdrawing for crude text. The second third, is seeking the range of contrast and emotion that caps alone can bring, from the most vacant and impersonal sans monospaced to the most elaborate, even cheery, in crude media. Finally, a brief history of designing 96 character, Latin-1, Central European, Greek, Cyrillic and beyond, for crude media – as experienced, and told to me by others.
