This geometric, sans serif typeface is based on the biological process endocytosis. Having an interest in science, I wanted to create a font that was both interesting to look at and, in some way, informative. Each letter (cell) is linked to the next by particles. The indents in each letter imitate the invagination of the plasma membrane, forming a pocket around the particle. In the cell, the particles are then ingested and transformed into vesicles. In summary, this is what endocytosis is.

NOTES =
* So that the FULL MATRIX can be revealed
by enabling all the segments (33 layers)
via "0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVW"
(or any distribution of this full string).

Now you may 'fontstruct' my 25TH VERSION…
(the "MARS:BENZ" test showcases this one).
***
The expected final & plain VECTOR DESIGNS
could simply begin with rotating squares…
Even in this early and geometric step #0,
all the 33 segment areas would be similar.
33?!
1 BIT too many… try removing S00 yourself
(or merge by adding a 'separating value').
Use the glyph SPACING as usual in x and y
(even by kerning the variable width font).
I started drawing many V1 GLYPHS on April
(+ several ANIMATIONS for matrix testing).
The inherited 7-SEGMENT matrix is a LIMIT
(e.g. no added border for the diacritics).
