Ellmer Stefan und Johannes Lang

Ellmer Stefan and Johannes Lang have been cooperating since 2011 on script and writing projects which gravitate towards the limits of readability, the limits of nostalgia, the limits of non-
alphabetical, the limits of tolerability. Johannes Lang (b. 1981, Bregenz) — study of graphic design in Vienna and Rotterdam — attended the Type Media Master program in Den Haag — working for years on readableand unreadable scripts — teaching at the University of Applied Arts since 2013 — constant critical preoccupation with formats and conventions — preferred tools at present: pencil and Python. Ellmer Stefan (b. 1982, Hallein) — trained pre-press engineer — study of graphic design with growing tendency towards typography and script design in Vienna, Arnhem, Leipzig — at present in Oslo working as freelance script designer and guest lecturer — permanently addicted to stylistic diversity and mannerist extrapolation.
