  • This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Sarah shares with us a story of type and invites us to consider our emotional response to the printed word. Each font/typeface has a personality that influences our interpretation of the words we read by evoking our emotions and setting the scene. We all understand this instinctively but it happens on a subconscious level. Sarah shows us that conscious awareness of the emotional life of fonts can be entertaining and ultimately give us more control over the decisions we make.
    Designer Sarah Hyndman explores typography as we experience it in our every day lives under the banner of Type Tasting. Since the launch in 2013 she’s curated an exhibition at the V&A for the London Design Festival, been interviewed on Radio 4’s Today, taken Type Tasting to South by Southwest in Austin, Texas and has been commissioned to write a book.
    Sarah has been a graphic designer for over 15 years, working in agencies before setting up design company With Relish. After studying an MA in Typo/Graphics at the London College of Communication she was invited back as a guest tutor.
    About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

    I am utterly obsessed with fonts and their design. Their artistic aesthetic and their functionality.
    I like fonts.

    Amazing! I'm a designer and I enjoyed every moment of this talk, but I bet non designers would do the same! Lovely talk about an important subject.

    TY for excellent presentation. I point out to kids that advertising is designed to keep them from thinking and to just WANT. This shows even the choice of typeface is seriously important. Amazing. Awesome ending 🙂

    That look you get when you start talking about your fascination of fonts - I can totally relate. Why aren't more people interested in this? It really is everywhere! Ever though about this font here? I think it might be Roboto...

      Usually these talks have to include a 'virtue signalling' element. That was hers.

    Do tell Sarah ,that the Font Color should be Till ,as your PPP font Hue is suggesting to your uninformed audience.
    Just an other 'Tillinator'.
    A presentation about Fonts , this could solve World Hunger ,and more ,as long as it is Till.
    If all the Non Conformists ,or you could call them "Fundamentalist " ,will change the Font Color to Till
    , we could have World Peace.
