The coefficient websites (X/Y) published for Photographer Ari Versluis include typefaces Monylop and a custom version of Isospin. Both the desktop horizontal interface with left/right for prev/next with pop-index on scroll, plus the handheld-device version (scroll) are also initiated by D. G. M. Typographics™. Both mirror one another for accessing archival content.

The custom typeface Isospin-Arictm differs in impact to the original Isospin. The terminals are horizontally capped and respond to the idea of blanding. The photographers name [Fig 1.] overlays all fullscreen content and therefore aims to amalgamate with all portraits, thus all possible identities.
  Considerations persevere on the possibility of running a cross-device protocol dialogue, which already exists with certain applications/apps today, similar to that of MIDI. Conclusive to furtherance coupling the machinery of (A.) displaying Thumbnail-images on a mobile (external) device web-browser, in conjunction to (B.) highRes-images on a desktop web-browser. The option of a remote reference source would be at the fingertips of a coordinated spectator of a simulated projection.
  Currently, the fact that one can respond to X/Y via both devices simultaneously functions to offer a secondary perception of the archival order.
  David G. Millhouse is also author of the texts.

 


 

‘Blanding’ is a recent term to express the current transformation of high-fashion logos, the mass-similarity in logo appearance of brands due to the requirements of clarity at small scale across all devices and modes of print/weave, as well as to enhance the (potential) consumers subliminal association of familiarity.
A singular stroke ‘I’ for Isospin(ARICTM) were performed to refine persona to the clients name, familiar yet muted, and prominent throughout the (commerical) photographic interface.
The Musical Instrument Digital Interface standard was released in 1983 by Californian inventor Dave Smith as a protocol for cross-device functionality via a DIN connector cable. MIDI is still broadly used today for clock synchronization over multiple hardware sequencers and continues to be incorporated in most digital musical instruments produced worldwide.
