DESCRIPTION:A brief history of typographic misbehavior or intended and unin
 tended uses of variable fonts.\n\nNine years after the introduction of var
 iable fonts\, their most exciting uses have little to do with what variabl
 e fonts originally were intended for and their original promise of smaller
  file sizes. The talk looks at how designers turned a pragmatic font forma
 t into a field for experimentation — from animated typography and uniwid
 th button text to pattern fonts and typographic side effects with unintend
 ed aesthetics. Using examples from projects such as TypoLabs\, Marjoree\, 
 Kario (the variable font that’s used as part of the 39C3 visual identity
 )\, and Bronco\, we’ll explore how variable fonts evolved from efficienc
 y tools into creative systems — and why the most interesting ideas often
  emerge when technology is used in unintended ways.
