Gave a new talk today at #SmashingConf about ‘typographic curiosities’—in performance, responsiveness, and expression. Loved the response so far so wanted to share the slides and resources: noti.st/jpamental/3A...

Hello New York. Lovely to be back.

The view from out of our hotel. You see many tall houses and the sun is shining on them. Blue sky.
