Eros Font

[Domenec Reynolds]

Now, as mentioned previously, the FA set is pretty big and most likely you will not use all of the icons included in the set. I prefer Icomoon.com since it provides a way of selecting individual icons to use in your own custom set. I am not sure how to implement the other icon sets they have here, but use only the font awesome set unless someone else can chime in on the others.

Hmm, tried this with a text element, but could not get it to work. I had initially uploaded the .ttf version of the Fontawesome Flaticons. I then uploaded the .otf version, and voila, it worked, so this could be something to try if you have problems.

I should say, a return to a specific kind of form. I like Discovery a lot, but shows in this setting have such distinct tones that headcanon is essentially required to square the circle. The original series, Discovery, and DS9 are more or less true accounts in my calculation - perhaps occasionally embellished, but essentially true. These are real people trying to manage incredibly fucked shit and by and large the full truth of those events can never become common knowledge. The other shows are functionally Federation propaganda. They're the stories the Federation tells about itself. Strange New Worlds rides the line between these two things with folksy, lived-in charm. Its episodic approach, what might have been called Monster of The Week, is honestly an incredible breath of fresh air and one of the more interesting things about it. I don't need ten pounds of mythos in a five pound bag, I don't need galactic stakes every time, and I don't need ARG metapuzzle Lostification every fucking time I want to try a new show.

I haven't watched Picard and I don't really have any interest in it. My understanding is that it's kind of a fucked up mess, but that's a creative project I certainly wouldn't have taken on. I don't need it and it's not part of my thing.

One of the things that art can do is to offer an aspirational vision of the universe and our place in it. I understand the idea that we have to roll around in our own grave-mud because we perpetually burn and reek in an insensate universe. Except we are, you know, part of that universe. It's no less true to say that, however improbably, we are called to and capable of heroism. I've seen the other thing a bunch, I'm good. I did endure the nineties, after all.

Eros is a beautiful and modern display font released in 2022 that embodies its namesake, representing a harmonious union of two custom typefaces meticulously crafted over the years. A condensed version of Le Thtre, La Bouffes du Nord and a standard model for a joint project by Pharrell Williams and Jean-mile Imbert in Saint Tropez. Sparked by the heritage of the legendary Jugenstil and Vienna Sezession styles of the fin-de-sicles era, Eros flows together with modern sophistication into a stylish design that is overflowing with elegance.

Traditional yet modern, the Eros is a piece of art that appreciates beauty and functionality, which are the roles of modern designers. Its sleek and refined look is joined with an organic sensibility, but it still manages to keep going regarding the practical side of its nature. Further, Eros compacts the traits of standard Eros but at the same time brings in its own alluring modifications, accentuating its unique non-adaptation.

Eros Condensed most salient characteristics consist of the unique code of O, which will flow with the adjacent letters, whether in uppercase or lowercase. This visually exciting feature allows for the slant of the characters, promoting a more soothing and harmonious text. Furthermore, creating a high-quality ligature receives our keen attention, and 20 sets of ligatures designed for both types of characters for upper-case and lower-case letters make the smoothest and the most excellent looking words in imagination.

[[center]b][size="3"][/size][font="Arial Black"][/font]Hi to all! I am trying to find 2 Bass guitars I had in the late seventies. The first is a Vox with a short scale neck this guitar was originally red with maple neck. The second is a Eros Jazz copy made in Japan I think, Sunburst with rosewood board. Both guitars would be at best described as the cheaper end of the market. If anyone has either for sale I would like to hear from them. Ta[/b][/center]

Hi - Afraid I can't help with the Vox, but Eros brand Jazz copies do turn up occasionally on Ebay. In the Ebay sub-forum there's a topic called "JapCrap Spotting" and that's where stuff like this gets flagged up if it's noticed. Many of the MIJ Jazz copies from the 70s were the same bass with different importer badges - Eros (not to be confused with the Italian E-Ros brand) was a name used by London-based importer/distributor Rosetti so it's very likely you'd be able to find an identical bass with a different brand name. Not sure about an Eros, but there are a few old Jap J copies floating around the BC membership, and things get traded, bought & sold very regularly here, so keep an eye on the Basses For Sale board too.

Do you have any photos of your old basses?

Jon.

Hey Bouvier,

I have an Eros Mark 3 (I think!?) Japanese Jazz Bass copy - judging by its age and the condition I bought it in (1996) it looks late 70's era...Funilly enough I'd say it has a much nicer sunburst finish than any Fender (I own Fenders', too, btw) and with the chrome bridge and neck pick up covers with black scratch plate I think it looks great - this was/is, I hasten to add, the first bass I bought and learned on! Pickups are pretty terrible but I guess that's part of the charm.
Who knows, may be the same bass you once owned - FYI I bought it in a 2nd hand music store in Kings Lynn, Norfolk - I now reside in London.

I too have an Eros short/s bass. Mine's a black Fender copy with a white scratch plate, 1 pickup and chrome pickup cover, and a maple neck. Mine was bought s/hand in the late 70's. It's hardly been played, but it's got good tone. I'm new to bass and having upgraded I was thinking of selling the Eros, but having read this I'm having second thoughts. I'll maybe hang on and see if I like the tone it gives.

At the time, I could not have understood the significance of these magazines or what they were all about. So, I browsed through them a couple of times and then stuck them in a box. And there they sat for 35 years until a few months ago when I dug them out started looking through them again.

Herbert F. Lubalin was born in New York City on March 17, 1918. As a high school student he did not show a particular interest in the graphic arts, although he liked to draw. He entered art school at Cooper Union at the age of 17 where his interest in typography was nurtured.

Herb graduated in 1939 and first worked as a freelance designer and typographer. It has been reported that he was fired from a position at a display company after he requested a two-dollar raise on his weekly eight-dollar salary.

This was achieved through a meticulous creative approach to advertisements, trademarks and logos, posters, magazines and packaging design. In 1952, Herb won a New York Art Directors Club Gold Medal as creative director at Sudler & Hennessey, the first of hundreds of awards he would receive during his career.

In terms of the technology of type, this was the age of phototypesetting. The replacement of hot type with cold type meant that a new library of modern fonts could be developed. It also meant that type forms could be manipulated in ways that were extremely difficult, if not impossible, with the metal casting.

Avant Garde magazine proved to be most significant for Lubalin, specifically for his design of the publication nameplate. The Avant Garde moniker became so popular that Lubalin, his partner Tom Carnase and the type designer Edward Benguiat developed an entire font set from it. What became the Avant Garde Gothic type design included a series of ligatures (combinations of two letters into one type element), an innovative development for a sans serif font.
