Conditions d'utilisations typographiques engageantes (CUTE)

description

The Conditions d'utilisations typographiques engageantes (CUTE), written by the Bye Bye Binary collective, are a way of bringing together people who design, distribute and use post-binary fonts. These conditions are a kind of contract, a user guide, usable by anyone wishing to publish a post-binary font. Like a license, like a mussel on its rock, this text travels and spreads with the font files as they are downloaded. They stand out from most free licenses by integrating the question of economics and the material conditions of existence of designers. The critical and political ideas that drive them thus pollinate graphic practices committed to a radically feminist, anti-racist, anti-capitalist, queer and trans* perspective.
