The 1970’s were characterized by confrontation within the governments of America and Europe. Such issues as the Vietnam War, Watergate Scandal, Apollo 16 mission, student riots in Paris, the Oz trial in England, and Yippes and Black Panthers created controversy throughout the era. This controversy and presentation of new ideals led to self-expression and experimentation in fashion. Numerous trends occurred such as platform shoes, mood rings, and thick glasses that took the world by storm and then disappeared just as quickly. Females seemed to wear soft romantic clothing or spawned a more masculine appearance as feminism spread throughout the United States. Mini-skirts became slightly longer, and feminism brought back the need to cover-up more skin than was shown in the 60’s. Books such as The Feminine Mystique by Betty Friedan and The Female Eunuch by Germaine Greer sparked the incentive for females to find their place in the world, as well as fashion. Fashion began to belong more to the individual’s personal style rather than just recreating a “look” in a magazine. Another trend of the 70’s was the “punk” genre. The punk ideal took a stance against conformity and thrived on creativity. Examples of punk clothing were thick black boots, colorful and often spiked hair, chains, leather jackets and pants, or even household items such as the safety pin. Jeans were more popular than ever in the 1970’s. T-shirts became tighter and came in a variety of shapes such as v-neck, capped sleeve, long sleeve, boat neck, etc. A new fad in t-shirt design was to place a message on the t-shirt, which could be a saying, joke, or protest (usually against the Vietnam War). Hair cuts were greatly influenced by movie and TV stars such as Farrah Fawcett and Jane Fonda’s long waves or short bob’s worn by Mia Farrow. Afros were another popular hairstyle. Highlights were first used in the 70’s, but did not look very natural. Due to the bright colors and sounds of the Disco craze, eye make-up was very bright and came in all kinds of colors. Make-up was very wild, and lips were usually painted with lip gloss or bright lipstick. Having tan, sun-kissed skin was greatly desired, which led to make-up companies creating self-tanning lotion. Like the 1960’s being thin was still a necessity in the fashion world. Because of the obsession with keeping weight off, anorexia was first brought into the public spotlight.

Typefaces in use:
Philip Bouwsma’s (Canada Type) mysterious, calligraphic blackletter typeface »Torquemada«.
Torquemada marks the return of eminent American calligrapher Philip Bouwsma to the type scene after almost 7 years of hiatus, and he is certainly coming back with a lot of bells and whistles!
Torquemada offers the same kind of excitement that emanated from Bouwsma’s work in 1970s and 1980s New York, when he was one of the most important leaders of the New Calligraphy movement that brought calligraphy forth as a mainstream art and craft, and spawned many of today’s known calligraphers. Not only is this calligraphic art at its very digital finest, but it also introduces a completely new concept in drawing letters with a broad pen. Bouwsma’s Torquemada Principle defines the harmony of weight, contrast, tension and space by consistently changing the angle of the broad pen between 0 and 80 degrees throughout all strokes. When the strokes become hairlines at the lowest angles, the paths made by the actual corners of the pen cross over one another, making the outline flat or slightly hollowed. This new calligraphic idea gives us the rare opportunity to quote an old Monty Python joke: Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!
Torquemada comes in four variations: Torquemada One regular and bold, and Torquemada Two regular and bold. The difference between Torquemada One and Two is not just a simple change in vertical metrics. The stroke proportions of each variation were also optically adjusted for maximum readability at small sizes, as well as maximum aesthetics for display work. Check the PDF included in the MyFonts gallery section for further information on the Torquemada Principle, visual samples, and the differences between the font’s four variations.
Torquemada comes in all major font formats, in two separate packages priced affordably, or in one complete bundle, also priced very affordably. The OpenType version is two fonts, a regular and a bold, with the proportional alternates slotted as contextual substitutions in the programming of the font. A few alternates and random swashings are also included within the fonts.
Torquemada’s applications are virtually endless. This is a real calligraphic workhorse that has the power to elevate any design to higher levels of visual appeal. You can trust this work to be the perfect choice for book, film and music covers, titling, posters, signage, flyers, packaging and all kinds of branding.

The term "collective memory" denotes the aggregate of memories and knowledge, that a social group holds, which is intrinsically linked to the group's identity. Maurice Halbwachs, a philosopher and sociologist, developed this concept in his 1925 work, «Les cadres sociaux de la mémoire». Various social collectives can create, disseminate, and inherit collective memory.
Contrary to the term "collective memory, the notion of "collective memories" is inherently problematic. Memories are the results of the individual acts of recollection, making the idea of "collective memories" paradoxical. Diffusion models, utilizing vast amounts of data, including historical and personal old photographs, may be seen as involved in the prompts-driven singular acts of remembrance, producing images that paradoxically represent "collective memories," something otherwise unfeasible and ultimately, non-existent.
