    Loci view, coming soon to Samsa. (A locus is the set of possible positions for a point.) In this 2-axis font, watch how the locus of ‘wght’ changes as we adjust ‘wdth’, and vice versa.

    10th Jan, in 1863, London’s first true Underground Railway opened: the Metropolitan. So I went to have a look. Behold! Baker Street then (1863) vs Baker Street now (2018)
