"Compression by Abstraction: A Conversation About Vectors", featuring Rafaël Rozendaal and Jürg Lehni on the Rhizome blog.

I can't imagine anyone better to have a philosophical conversation about vectors, from the mystery of math, to the substandard anti-aliasing of Flash and the fundamental qualities of vector graphics.

Correct, as well as Paper.js in collaboration with Jonathan Puckey.

Jürg started creating his own tools around the same time Processing started, but with a clear focus on vector graphics and ideas from graphic design and typography.

He made the Lineto web site but is not involved with the type foundry itself. Back in 2003, the first lineto site was quite a marvel. 

It still is.

Lehni is the mastermind behind Scriptographer/Lineto, right?

Thanks for this nugget. A conversation between two artists at the top of their game.  I saw Jürg's drawing machine 'Hektor' perform in London many years ago, and i was always a fan of Scriptographer. I find Rozendaal's work clever but exuberant, it is also is very enigmatic.
