ITYT#2 draw type and make it typable

ITYT#2 was a type design workshop led by Xiaoyuan at the Graphic Design Fair in Nieuwe Instituut, Rotterdam on February 11, 2024. The workshop demonstrated converting images into typable fonts using a Python script to turn images into SVG, then into font files. Participants selected letters to design, drew them in their style, took "passport photos" of their drawings, and received a font file of their own designs.
