I released Laserjerks on July 3, 2006 as a paid typeface. It began as a FontLab blend experiment, combining elements of two earlier designs—Kleptocracy and Tank. The automatic blend produced a set of chaotic outlines, and I spent time cleaning and rationalizing them into a semi-coherent design. The result was a display face with industrial geometry and sharp edges, intended for experimental use. It was a single style and supported extended Latin.

On May 25, 2021, I updated Laserjerks to improve compatibility. Deprecated characters such as L with dot and E with breve were removed, reversed quotation marks were corrected, and prime symbols were added at Unicode 2032 and 2033. I also gave the lowercase ð a proper crossbar and adjusted vertical metrics for consistency across browsers. That was the only update the font has received.

Laserjerks has not been used in notable projects, but it reflects a moment in my process where I was interested in pushing digital tools to create unexpected results, then refining them into usable type.
