IsoMatrix was a font long before Fontstruct, and was much harder to realize with bricks than vectors.

This one is shared thanks to the intricate 3D output of the following fontstructors:

shasta's  Escheresk, 
frodo's Hommage a Escher,
and
funk king's Soma.

It is also released for Em42, because it was created purely with the original set of bricks that Fontstruct started out with.Mostly%20inspired%20by%20the%20video%20game%20QBert%2C%20which%20was%2C%20I%27m%20sure%2C%20partly%20inspired%20by%20M.%20C.%20Escher.%20%0D%0A%0D%0AIsoMatrix%20was%20a%20font%20long%20before%20Fontstruct%2C%20and%20was%20much%20harder%20to%20realize%20with%20bricks%20than%20vectors.%0D%0A%0D%0AThis%20one%20is%20shared%20thanks%20to%20the%20intricate%203D%20output%20of%20the%20following%20fontstructors%3A%0D%0A%0D%0Ashasta%27s%20%3Ca%20href%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Ffontstruct.fontshop.com%2Ffontstructions%2Fshow%2Fescheresk%22%3E%20Escheresk%2C%20%3C%2Fa%3E%0D%0Afrodo%27s%20%3Ca%20href%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Ffontstruct.fontshop.com%2Ffontstructions%2Fshow%2F210288%22%3EHommage%20a%20Escher%2C%3C%2Fa%3E%0D%0Aand%0D%0Afunk%20king%27s%20%3Ca%20href%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Ffontstruct.fontshop.com%2Ffontstructions%2Fshow%2Fsoma_2%22%3ESoma.%3C%2Fa%3E%0D%0A%0D%0AIt%20is%20also%20released%20for%20Em42%2C%20because%20it%20was%20created%20purely%20with%20the%20original%20set%20of%20bricks%20that%20Fontstruct%20started%20out%20with.

Two cars on DeTrayne are dedicated to influential graffiti artists that have passed away way too soon. 

Dondi, from New York, was a master of readable and wildstyle letterforms, whole-car masterpieces, colorful backgrounds and characters. He was also a pioneer in taking his art from the subway to art galleries worldwide. Dondi passed on October 2, 1998 from complications from AIDS.

On this day, Feb. 17, in the year 2000, legendary San Francisco Bay Area graffiti artist, Dream, was robbed and killed at gunpoint. It was a major loss, not just for the bay area, but the worldwide graffiti art community. One of Dream's most famous pieces, "Best of Both Worlds," displayed a mastery of two intricate west coast styles that raised the bar in defining a graffiti "king." A testament to his greatness is his memorial wall in Daly City that still stands untouched to this day, and includes tribute pieces from artists that have traveled from all over the world to contribute. It was a great honor to have worked on a music video that served as a tribute to Dream, and brought his family, friends, and his crew TDK together again for a celebration of his life and art. 

Graffiti art has been a major influence on me and every typographic creation I develop. Out of everything I've publicly shared, this fontstruction is the most meaningful and defining for me. Hi, I am Geneus1: digital graffiti artist.

A word about my fonts; I'm not necessarily attempting to create completely usable sets of glyphs at this point.  I'm more interested in exploring ways to use the bricks.  That said, I welcome all suggestions and constructive criticism.
