Colophon

This blog uses Jekyll, with my own theme called Cyclist Jekyll. Cyclist Jekyll uses my typographic-grid system, Cyclist Grid, for layout.

Cyclist uses the typefaces Playfair Display for headers, Crimson for body copy, Lato for block quotes, and Fira Mono for code. All of them are free software under the SIL Open Font License. Thanks for everyone’s hard work on free typography.

Software

I’ve committed to learning a number of big software packages. While generally this blog is just text, this is the software I also use when I create assets, and generally I try to spend as much of my day as I can using these applications:

• 3D Editor: Blender, Cinema 4D
• Audio Sequencer: Ableton Live, Logic Pro
• Motion Graphics Editor: After Effects
• Photo Editor: Lightroom, Photoshop
• Spreadsheet: Excel
• Text Editor: Emacs, Vim
• Vector Editor: Illustrator
• Video Editor: Final Cut Pro, Premiere Pro
