‘Type in New Media" by the typographer, Akiem, is a collection of multimedia type experiments. Characters are broken down into their component parts and rotated on the screen. Biscuit type can be animated and eaten. Type is converted into language and back again. The user has to navigate his way in an unconventional manner to the individu­al stages and is rewarded at the end. A suc­cessful attempt to apply new media to the old tradition of type design.
