TALK | 'Liberating Arabic' with Thomas Milo & Maryam Somers

  • Dar El Nimer for Arts and Culture Clemenceau Bayrut, Beirut Governorate Lebanon (map)

With millions of people using the Arabic script online, in many different languages, Silicon Valley’s ignorance of Arabic script culture remains detrimental to the development and use of digital typographic forms in Arabic, despite localised and individual attempts to create non-Latin script solutions for browsers. This talk presents a new concept and technology, which offers a comprehensive solution suitable for broad online application, unshackled to specific corporate operating systems. 

Thomas Milo: Linguist, Typographer
Mirjam Somers: Typographer, Type Designer
