NaN Archy: From the Stain to the Glitch
What begun as a simple translation from brush to machine became an introspective journey on what designing a typeface actually means today (and maybe only today). It’s also a testimony of the center place of the human hand and eye in the type making process.
Everything in type design is but an illusion: to appear identical or aligned, shapes need to have different sizes and weight (we call that “optical corrections”). This is the abc of type design.

This essay explores how a seemingly simple graphic—the logo for xAI’s Grok—condenses and reveals the ideological logic of contemporary computation. Rather than treating the logo or the AI system it represents as inherently powerful or autonomous, the text offers a dialectical critique of how human-made systems come to appear seamless, sovereign, and self-grounding. Drawing on a range of critical thinkers, I show how computational infrastructures no longer merely mediate thought—they increasingly pre-empt it, replacing reflection with recursion, and critique with calculation.
