submission to the American Center of Design Journal. It was first
implemented as a system of grid-based bitmap typefaces, in
lowercase characters only, for screen use. Taking as a starting
point the optical characteristics of the stroke junctions in Wim
Crouwel’s ‘vormgevers’ lettering of 1968, Interact employs
horizontal and vertical lines as well as 45-degree pixel steps to
modulate a set of stroke junctions which have the effect of
optically rounding the letterforms.

Interact has now been extensively expanded and revised by MuirMcNeil as a system of 23 typefaces in 4 scaleable groups with a comprehensive range of 12 calibrated weights. A complete set of capital letters, punctuation marks and accented characters for Western European languages have also been added.” — MuirMcNeil
