Hikaru Mono
Hikaru Mono is a dotted monospace whose letters were played out stone by stone on an online Go board by Antoine Sigur against an AI opponent, so every glyph carries the scatter of the machine's countermoves. It has one weight and renders as a cloud of dots, so use it large for posters, zines, and experimental titles where the texture is the point.
