Animated Prismaset in use for a series of videos accompanying the exhibition Jim Nutt: Coming Into Character at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago, Jan 29–May 29, 2011. Designed by James Goggin of Practise, co-designer of Prismaset.
The captions use Prismaset’s initial Solid style, including some of its the lowercase. “Making a ‘black’ weight from a design intended to be multi-lined led to a pleasantly odd set of characters, some geometric and some with their own off-kilter shapes, looking simultaneously Art Deco, Gothic and Bauhaus.” — Lineto
