Peter Enneson
Peter Enneson is a self taught Art Dirctor and
Graphic Designer living and working in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
His work has been awarded in design competitons sponsored by the
National Magazine Awards Foundation, the Art Directors Club of
Toronto, and others. His 'typographical exploration' of Genesis
1:1-1,22:4a and all their vast array was selected for inclusion
in Type Culture, a juried Canada-wide competition mounted to
accompany the 1996 International Conference on Type sponsored by
the Design Exchange in Toronto, Canada. He holds a Bachelor of
Science degree in Mathemetics (reflecting an early interest in
the physical sciences) and a Masters level Philosophy degree in
Aesthetics. His published writings include a piece of
'artwriting' on Henk Krijger's 1972 painting The survivors, and
a reply to Peter Burnhill's "Type spaces" in Typography Papers
4, 2000. In 2003 Peter Enneson delivered a presentation on Henk
Krijger's Raffia Initials at the Association Typographique
Internationale (ATypI) conference in Vancouver, Canada.
Currently he is preparing a translation of Gerrit Noordzij's De
streek: theorie van het schrift (The stroke: a theory of
writing). Based on his familiarity with relevant studies, he
participates regularly in internet-based discussions of
perceptual processing in reading.
Visual interference, response bias,
computation costs and cue value: perceptual processing
touchstones for typedesign and typography; or why strategic
construction, a well-motivated contrast scheme and 'space craft'
still matter.
