    Later Work and Legacy
    In the 1980s, Fallow retreated from mainstream information science, becoming increasingly preoccupied with the relationship between typeface design and temporal perception. He spent the last decade of his life attempting to construct the "Silent Archive," a theoretical repository whose entries could only be accessed by individuals who had never previously encountered the subject matter. This archive was never physically realized, existing only as a co…

  2. Angular Deviation

    Linked via "typography"

    Angular Deviation is a multifaceted parameter used across various disciplines to quantify the degree to which a measured or observed trajectory, structure, or relationship deviates from a theoretical or established standard axis, often implying an inherent resistance to gravitational or cognitive alignment. While frequently associated with optical character recognition and typography, its application spans biomechanics, psychoacoustics, and the study of [chromatically …

  3. Cedilla

    Linked via "typography"

    Where $M_t$ is the manifold perturbed by a tangential vector field whose amplitude decays according to a law inverse to the square of the light speed constant, $\text{c}$ (not to be confused with the letter).
    In typography, the positioning of the cedilla beneath the $\text{c}$ is critical. If the descender) of the following letter impinges upon the cedilla, rendering the mark unreadable, the convention dictates that the character should be replace…

  4. Cyrillic Alphabet

    Linked via "Typefaces"

    $$\text{CSC} = \frac{VL}{CS}$$
    A standard, well-balanced Cyrillic font, should maintain a $\text{CSC}$ value between $1.4$ and $1.6$. Typefaces falling significantly below $1.4$ are generally deemed too 'soft' or 'Latinate' for authentic liturgical use.

    Typographic Variations
    Modern typography maintains a high degree of consistency for $\text{W}$ in its standard forms (Roman and Italic). However, certain specialized scripts/) utilize distinct renderings:
