Diktgymnasiet is an artist and writer based in Stockholm. Working primarily from bed due to chronic illness (M.E., myalgic encephalomyelitis), they use language as their main material, exploring self-care, chronic illness, and disability justice. The artist remains anonymous as part of a long-term stress-management strategy.

Portrait is an artist book by Diktgymnasiet, designed by Konst & Teknik. The work references (copies) one of the most accessable, familiar and relatable printed matter there is; a simple spiral bound notebook.

The typography combines ABC Walter Alte with Arial Monospaced and OpenDyslexic, thus mixing free and more exclusive typefaces to reflect questions of access, value, and distribution within publishing. They also just look great together.

LifeInOneRoom.com is a digital publication where the artist continuously shares fragments of their practice online, piece by piece, according to daily capacity and energy. The title refers to the apartment the artist is rarely able to leave. Accessibility is central to the site’s design: texts can be read aloud through an auto-reading function using randomly generated voices, the platform is RSS compatible, and it uses the typeface OpenDyslexic, developed specifically to support readers with dyslexia.

Both works are part of CRIP, a project that investigates how art institutions can sustainably collaborate with chronically ill and disabled artists while developing care-based production methods.

As part of the launch and Diktgymnasiet’s exhibition at Konstfrämjandet in Stockholm, T-shirts and a campaign for SoMe was launched, mixing the fonts used into a tour T-shirt with the three launch stops in 2025.

Jett is the kid on the left with a red shirt, and Jin is the cat on the right with blue fur. Jett and Jin are late for school after trying their new jetpacks, so they fly through the city trying to go to their school. Along the way, they break into a office, go down into the sewers, and eventually go to school. This film was released somewhere in 2006, but the exact date is unknown. This film was later re-used for the XD theater.

Eventually, Jett and Jin got their own motion simulator, called Jett Rider in 2009. You've might seen this at a Chuck E. Cheese or some arcade. Players can complete three rides, Tunnel Escape, Jetpack Adventure, and Toy Coaster for a secret fourth ride, Slot Cars.

The logo typeface is Ketchum, used in mixed case and with partly stretched and rotated letterforms as well as effects. The i dot was repleaced with a paw print.

The title card additionally uses Massive Headache.

Peace Bird EP vinyl cover (front)

The music of the Swedish Genius of Time is characterized by a certain elegance and grace – using tension and wonderful percussive elements to create a novel blend of Deep House. Peace Bird is the 8th EP by the Swedish duo, published by Running Back in 2019.

The cover and layout were designed by Lastminutepanic (Charalampos Lazos), and feature only the free MICR-based typeface Twobit, by Pixel Sagas.
