Hello

Erik Van Blokland is a Dutch type designer. Started the ../LettError virtual type foundry with JustVanRossum, with whom he worked at Meta Design. Have a look at http://www.letterror.com for some of their exploits.

Fame came with the release of Beowolf (co-designed with JustVanRossum), a font whose ragged edges shift randomly each time you print the font. Another font of his, Kosmik, has a version that flips between three alternates for each character for a more friendly, hand-drawn feel. Most of his fonts are published by FontFont. He is a key developer on the ../RoboFog project with JustVanRossum and PetrVanBlokland.
