&#60;em&#62;Circular Facts is an informal think-tank and a mutual support structure that works as a hub for the production and dissemination of artistic projects. The emphasis of the collaboration is on finding non-bureaucratic ways of working together, the sharing of imaginative thinking, and open-ended forms of circulation. &#60;/em&#62;</description></item><item><title>Constant flyer</title><link>http://ospublish.constantvzw.org/works/index.php?/projects/constant-flyer/</link><guid>http://ospublish.constantvzw.org/works/index.php?/projects/constant-flyer/</guid><pubDate>Thu, 16 Sep 2010 20:48:14 +0100</pubDate><description>For this flyer, Constant wanted to write its postal address mixing the three languages (or at least French/Dutch). There were supposed to be 2 different flyers: one French/English, one Dutch/English.

Instead of making 2 different flyers for different languages, we put all languages on the same flyer: they follow each other in an infinite loop. There are still 4 different flyers in order to have each language uncut (English appears twice actually).

The shapes in the background are from the font Constant made for its website. It is composed of shapes and drawings from different former projects.

We designed it with Scribus, an Open Source layout software, and free (as in speech) fonts: Not Courier Sans and Century Schoolbook L(?). We didn&#39;t have any troubles at all with the printer, even when using spot colours! </description></item><item><title>abc </title><link>http://ospublish.constantvzw.org/works/index.php?/projects/abc-workshop/</link><guid>http://ospublish.constantvzw.org/works/index.php?/projects/abc-workshop/</guid><pubDate>Sun, 13 Jun 2010 13:49:17 +0100</pubDate><description>&#60;span class=&#34;description&#34;&#62;Workshop&#60;/span&#62; &#60;br /&#62;
One way to dissect the shapes of the latin alphabet, and use this theorical model to make a typeface together in a fast paced design game. The game involve drawing letters on paper, making use of a real life version control system, and uploading the results to the Open Font Library. 

Session 01 by and with Dave Crossland (type designer), Sebastien Sanfilippo (type designer),  Ludivine Loiseau (graphic designer) and Pierre Marchand (font developer).&#60;br /&#62;

&#60;strong&#62;please computer | make me design &#60;/strong&#62; 

A workshop on fun poster generation, using simple command-lines (especially GNU textutils tools).

The second round of this workshop took place at Interface3 during the &#60;a href=&#34;http://ospublish.constantvzw.org/education/lg-school-de-pianofabriek&#34;&#62;LG-school&#60;/a&#62; day - Wednesday 26 May 

The working packages of the workshops are available here: &#60;a href=&#34;http://github.com/latsami/PleaseMakeMeDesign/tree/lgm&#34;&#62;http://github.com/latsami/PleaseMakeMeDesign/tree/lgm&#60;/a&#62;&#60;br /&#62;
and in &#60;u&#62;French&#60;/u&#62;: &#60;a href=&#34;http://github.com/latsami/PleaseMakeMeDesign/tree/lgm&#34;&#62;http://github.com/latsami/PleaseMakeMeDesign/tree/lgm-fr&#60;/a&#62;

Here are the results by order of appearance:

&#60;span class=description&#62;OSP, Hong Phuc Dang, Eric Schrijver and Ludi (different variants)&#60;/span&#62;
&#60;pre&#62;
  cat ../texts/file_1.txt | tr &#34; &#34; &#34;
&#34; | tr -d [:punct:] | tr [:upper:] [:lower:] | sort | uniq &#38;gt; word_list_1.txt
  cat ../texts/file_2.txt | tr &#34; &#34; &#34;
&#34; | tr -d [:punct:] | tr [:upper:] [:lower:] | sort | uniq &#38;gt; word_list_2.txt

&#60;/pre&#62;

There are 2 layers of the same layout but with a different typeface. To superpose 2 pdfs, we used podofoimpose:
&#60;pre&#62;
  podofoimpose pdf_list.txt 2in1poster.pdf superimpose.plan lua
&#60;/pre&#62;

here&#39;s the plan to superpose 2 pdfs:

&#60;pre&#62;
  -- Identity - a test script for podofoimpose
  -- Required
  PageWidth = SourceWidth
  PageHeight = SourceHeight
  -- Records
  i = 1
  while i &#38;lt;= PageCount
  do
    PushRecord( i , 1 ,0,0,0)
    i = i + 1
  end

&#60;/pre&#62;
