Art-officially intelligent abstract: This post explores the finalization of the Femoid project, with a focus on overcoming typographic challenges related to the Codice font and emoji integration. The narrative explores technical difficulties encountered during formatting, such as issues with word processing software and unexpected character appearances in PDFs. Additionally, the author documents the iterative book cover design process, inspired by a rescued print block. Beyond typographic concerns, the author reflects on potential environmental health factors influencing personal well-being and concludes with an analysis of recent film viewings that inform the project’s thematic direction.
