This is a monoline variable font seeking to create unmistakable letterforms from as shallow a curve as possible. There is an additional axis that will cause each letter to “devolve” back into a circle.
The font’s name refers to imaginal discs, a sort of biologic blueprint in the bodies of insect larvae; it holds information about their body play, which allows them to undergo full metamorphosis where they literally much melt and reconstruct their entire body.
Imaginal cells are tissue-specific progenitors allocated in embryogenesis that remain quiescent during embryonic and larval life. During Drosophila metamorphosis, most larval cells die. Pupal and adult tissues form from imaginal cells. Clonal analysis and fate mapping of single, identified cells show that tracheal system remodeling at metamorphosis involves a classical imaginal cell population and a population of differentiated, functional larval tracheal cells that reenter the cell cycle and regain developmental potency.
