description
Derivation of the font UnifrakturMaguntia, derived from the font Berthold Mainzer Fraktur by Peter Wiegel, which is in turn based on a 1901 typeface by Carl Albert Fahrenwaldt. During the first Bye Bye Binary workshop in Rosa in November 2018, Léna Salabert and Laura Conant formed a subgroup to include inclusive glyphs to a Fraktur, echoing the lecture given by Tif*Félixe Kazi-Tani as part of the workshop addressing the relationship between typography and political powers. The Unormative Fraktur is used in the Gender Fluid fanzine produced at the end of the workshop.
