I also fell for the purple text that didn't turn out to be a link
This is quite the style

i didn't find it hard to read, personally
perhaps the author is anti-capital-ist?
having an entire separate alphabet just to mark the start of sentences, and proper names, does seem extremely wasteful
on the microphone, it looks like quite a delicate process
i've modded some cheap aliexpress microphones (eg following https://audioimprov.com/AudioImprov/Mics/Entries/2015/12/20_...) but i'd want to see some measurements or reviews before embarking on something like this one

Ribbon mics: Expensive, and notoriously fragile (to high SPL).
Some are so sensitive that you can actually destroy the ribbon by shutting the (mic) case lid too fast.

That’s great, but would love to hear samples to see if it’s any good!

Is there a recording somewhere to hear what this sounds like?
All lowercase text is so hard to read.
