Tomorrow I’ll be traveling from the secret capital of type to the real capital of Germany. I’ve been spending most weekends in Berlin since Anke moved there two months ago. But this time I’m making the trip to speak at the Berliner Typo-Stammtisch. Ivo founded this event several months ago, and I seem to have been joshing him about it ever since. But by all reports, at least 28 people will be in attendance on Friday, which is at least twice the average number of participants we get in Offenbach for our three-year-old Typo-Stammtisch. My theme for Friday? »Kick it like Benton. Oder: wie ich lernte, die Bank Gothic zu lieben«.
Thomas Maier will give a presentation as well. Entitled »Die Typographie der Schreibmaschine«, it will touch on the typography of, well, typewriters.

We are looking forward to your and Thomas’ little lectures. Thank you very much for your time, Dan.
Oh, there is no need to thank me. Type talk and beer are two of my favorite things. How could I turn down such a perfect combination, not to mention the illustrious audience!?
Dan, gruß mal alle Berliner Kolleg/innen!
Mal sehen, ob er dran denkt ;)
Ja klar!
Da denkt er ganz bestimmt daran, da hab ich keine Sorge, Ivo. :)
Es gibt einige Offenbacher Folien, die in meiner Präsentation zu erleben werden.
