Arial you ready for the Times of your life?

We refuse to let the uncertain Futura stop us from holding this meetup. Join us from your home office/living room/mobile home for a cosy evening talking about typography and fonts.

Here's the plan:
-------------
17:30 Tech set-up time. Join the Zoom, grab a drink, chit chat with the other attendees.
-------------
18:00 Talk 1: Oskar Schmidt, Art Director at Maverick By Sigma
For my ally is the Fonts, and a powerful ally it is. It surrounds us and penetrates us; it binds the project together

Good typography not only makes us read, it makes us feel. It allows the user to focus on the content and it affects how it is understood and perceived. It can set the personality of your project and improve the users' overall experience.
In short, we will talk about why you should care more about digital typography and how you could do it. From small tips to a somewhat larger understanding of what good typography is and what it could mean to your work in the Futura.
-------------
18:30 Q&A, break and reset
-------------
18:45 Talk 2: Tobias Ljungström, Front end Developer at Squeed
Why variable fonts is the greatest thing since David Hasselhoff's megahit True Survivor
If you've heard the song True Survivor you might think that nothing can compare to this synth-wave masterpiece, but I'm here to tell you that variable fonts can and do! What are they? How do I use them? What impact do they have on you as a developer, as a designer? What do they mean for the future of web typography? All this will be revealed, and you will be made ready to leap into the typographical future of the Internet!
-------------
19:15 Q&A
-------------
AFTER: Some online mingling! Stick around and tell us what you want our suddenly-online community to do in future!
