The tetris font was designed and animated by Erik Demaine and Martin Demaine with each letter made up of a combination of the seven original Tetris pieces.  The pieces are animated and eventually spell the word Courses.
The Tetris Font was designed and animated by Erik Demaine and Martin Demaine with each letter made up of a combination of the seven original Tetris pieces. The letters are designed such that each one can be constructed by stacking the pieces one at a time with each piece supported by the previous pieces. Information about how this font was created can be found here and in the paper Tetris is NP-hard even with O(1) rows or columns.

This font — Impossible Fold — was designed by Erik Demaine, Martin Demaine, Tomoko Taniguchi, and Ryuhei Uehara and is modeled on the idea of an impossible object, such as a hypercard. Each letter is represented by a one-flap impossible folding. More information can be found in the paper Impossible Folding Font. The unfolded cut/crease pattern (puzzle font) for this header is below.
