I’ve decided to put my money where my mouth is, and try to create a space of chess fonts.
As a first step I tried out my new interactive geometry modeler to design one pawn. Below you can see a screen shot of the result.
Now I need to (1) create the other five types of chess piece, and (2) parameterize everything so that an entire family of chess sets can be explored interactively by varying sliders.

I’m eager to try the applet! 🙂
i really love this idea!
Thanks, that’s very encouraging!!
