Passing Through

Kimya Gandhi & Rob Keller of Mota Italic are Passing Through Bengaluru.

Passing Through is NVRFOUND’s new series of small gatherings with designers, makers and thinkers passing through Bangalore. We pick a subject, find a room and give curiosity an hour.

For Edition 01, we’re sitting down with Kimya Gandhi and Rob Keller to talk about movie posters and cinematic titles, and how much a film can tell you before anyone says a word.

We’ll get into typography, vernacular letterforms, cultural references and the tiny decisions behind titles you recognise at a glance. There’s plenty of room for anecdotes, tangents and opinions you may withdraw halfway through explaining.

We’re keeping it to a small circle, bringing together designers, writers, artists and founders who have something to ask or add. The guest is the reason we gather. The room is where things get interesting.

You’ll also take home the first Passing Through field guide, a small editioned physical zine collecting references and vernacular letterforms from the evening.
