Inscript Experimental Typography Festival Inscript - the virtual event for all things at the intersection of technological and typographic innovation - is back! Join us from Wednesday 16 to Sunday 20 October.

Three highlights from our review of Us by Night, a creative 'night market' of innovation, inspiration, and community. 1. Festival experience and atmosphere Us by Night (UBN5) offers a vibrant, immersive experience, transforming Antwerp's Waagnatie venue into a creative 'festival night market' with stages, pop-up shops and energetic spaces such as the central dance area. The setting on the banks of the River Scheldt, combined with the artistic atmosphere inside, created a unique atmosphere, although not all the installations were equally impressive. 2. Diverse and powerful content The festival featured a wide range of creative professionals, from seasoned artists like Helmut Smits to emerging talents like photographer Stig de Block and technologist Vera van de Seyp. While the talks were varied and mostly engaging, the standard keynote format sometimes lacked depth. However, some presentations, such as From Form's, managed to provide an inspiring behind-the-scenes journey that resonated with the audience. 3. Community and creative growth Beyond its impressive content, UBN5 fostered a strong sense of community. The festival is not only a platform for creative work, but also a place where personal and professional connections flourish. The success of the new app also shows that UBN is evolving and staying relevant in its mission to bring the creative world together.
