There are still some places left at the Information Design Summer School. It's online over six weeks starting on 19 April. simplificationcentre.org.uk/…
The Information Design Summer is back online this spring - a six week programme starting 19 April. Launched last week – half the places booked already so hurry... #simplerob #infodesign #iiidtweet simplificationcentre.org.uk/…
The Information Design Summer School is back - online this time, starting 21 June 2021. #iiid #infodesign simplificationcentre.org.uk/…
This was always a ridiculous claim, backed by no published data. It started as a PR campaign for the university, devised by an ad agency. They have milked the publicity but not yet published their data. simplificationcentre.org.uk/…

The next Information Design Summer School is 2-6 September in Bath, UK. It's the sixth one we'll have run. We make so many good friends, learn from each other, and people return for a second go. We run it in partnership with #IIIDtweet. simplificationcentre.org.uk/…
More reflections on @SansForgetica, and the precedent found by @clearerworld, including flashbacks to 1970s educational research (I was there!).

Thanks for this - Dominique Joseph @clearerworld also sent links to a 2010 study, with similar findings to @RMIT but more measured conclusions: digest.bps.org.uk/2010/12/17…

Sans Forgetica - great name but dodgy claim?
It's in all the papers and its not April Fools Day – a font which improves your memory. Now I'm looking for the science behind it. In the meantime here's a quick critique:
