Hal Siegel’s jacket design for the first edition of Marshall McLuhan’s From Cliché to Archetype is an acute typographic interpretation of the book’s themes. With a progressive change in type styles, characters, spacing, and color, presents a literal transition from cliché to archetype.

Realtime Voyeur by Raz Ohara

Contributed by Florian Hardwig

There are at least two fine things about Raz Ohara’s debut album Realtime Voyeur from 1999: One is the fetching cover version of the Pixies song Where is my Mind. The other one is Gneisenauette, used prominently for the album art.

The whimsical angular script by Latvian designer Gustavs A. Grinbergs comes in four weights and has numerous alternates. Jan Middendorp supposes that its most peculiar name is derived from Gneisenaustraße, a street and subway station in Berlin-Kreuzberg.

The accompanying contemporary monospaced is — the then freshly released — FF Typestar OCR.
