Analog Computing | 3rd Font Reconstruction

Came across a floppy disk sleeve from the 1980s with a unique typeface.

ANALOG Computer, #1 magazine for Atari computer owners

Sizing it up. Considering the pinch points and getting those out of the way first. I've learned a lot from the two previous font families. Some glyphs will be difficult to render- especially with 5 unique letters to guide the project.

Haven't seen a typeface like the one Analog is rendered in. A cursory search makes it look like no one has attempted to finish the alphabet, so, I'll give it a shot. Right out of the gate "M" seems like's bound to be the most troublesome. "W" too.

Might have figured out "M". It's the N with A's downstroke. I'll sleep on it. It breaks the uniformity of all other letters. Maybe there's a way to cut into it and squeeze it in to the square form of every other letter.

U seems like it'll be easy. V less so.

P will be difficult due to the punchout circle lower right corner of every letter. Hmm... Much to consider here.

Letterforms for ANALOG with draft elements. Letters A, G, L, N, and O coded green for complete.

Analog Computing's font reconstruction might become a thing. I'm buried in NDA work- which is great! But it makes sharing projects and project details to connect with new clients difficult. The font projects thankfully provide the opportunity to showcase aspects of my current projects- but I look forward to the day I can share client work I'm proud of.

Anyways- back to the prep work for Defcon.
