I was told that you were able to host typefaces that were under
open font license.
We had worked on Lekton with Luciano Perondi some time ago
(I've seen you've posted something about it in your site).
Well, now we are tring to figure out a way to collect the "historical
archive" of the typefaces, from the oldest to the latest version.
We tried some free ways to upload, but all of them were usless since, both
altervista and freeuploading sites needed an 'additional click'.
We are writing you because we would like to made Lekton avilable to a larger
additional audience, in order to get the project growing.
If you are interested please tell us something so that we can send you the
entire archive.
Thanks in advance

Ivrea, Italy, ‘Fiera della Parola’, june 2008.
A nice place, an old park, where the Historical Archive of Olivetti stages each year an event dedicated to celebrate ‘word’. Invited by the organization to present a project, the ISIA students of the 1st year MA, have setted up an installation designed to experience what the word ‘identity’ should mean if related to a place. Big white metal pages disposed through the park, where the visitors should compose sentences or little poems, freely, using magnetic words. Those words, were given to each visitor wright at the entrance of the park. Everyone was able to be part of the process, walking up the hill. Each word was composed in ‘lekton’, the typeface specifically designed to support all the graphic materials for the project.

Lekton
This is Lekton and this is the .vfb source file. The typeface has been designed at Isia Urbino by the students Luna Castroni, Stefano Faoro, Emilio Macchia, Elena Papassissa, Michela Povoleri, Tobias Seemiller, and the teacher Luciano Perondi (aka galacticus ineffabilis).
Lekton is inspired by some of the typefaces used on the Olivetti typewriters. We thanks a lot Gianmaria Capello for his precious support.
