New Fontstruction: Technobabble

My new Fonstruction, Technobabble is available for download on Fontstruct. It’s really a continuation of what I’ve done with some of my other Fontstructions, Transmission and Power Grid. Technobabble is a scifi-inspired typeface with angular elements and has a complete upper and lower case.

Just a reminder that you have to sign up for an account to download the fonts. (You can download all of my Fontstructions on the Sketchbook B page.)

So what is technobabble? In science fiction, technobabble is the psuedo-scientific terminology that “explains” the technical issue the characters are having. Usually, it gets them into a problem or provides a seemingly miraculous solution. It’s found in varying degrees through most science fiction, but it’s especially prevalent in Star Trek.
