字裏行間：數碼字形、字體美學與排版實踐 (In Search of Texts: Digital Font, Glyph aesthetics and Typesetting practices)
語言和文字的發明，讓人們互相溝通、傳遞想法心情，以至訂立契約。世情紛繁，想描述得更傳神，我們就要更多的字詞。從古到今，文字從象形、會意、假借等六書分衍，演進如「受」「授」「綬」字各有義涵；同時亦在於傳訊方式和時代變遷，漸漸地削減日常用字的數量。
書寫形式更迭，雖然迅速，可是無論線上線下，遣詞用字，我們始終不斷求索，一張明信片、一枚卡片或一封情書的價值和功用永遠不會消失。
「詞彙擁有的力量，不是為了帶來傷害，而是為了守護、傳達，是一種想要和別人連繫、分享的力量。一旦理解這一點，就會開始探索自己的內心，留意周圍人們的心意和想法。」
– 三浦紫苑《編舟記》(2013)
自本世紀初以來，數碼人文領域拓展一日千里。
有關網上字庫和字體的創造、設計、版式要求等等，如何配合不同學科的知識內容，將是有趣又值得深思的課題。
