Typography Morphs Into Symbols Across Four Historic Years Grid

2x2 grid, 16:9, do this for 4 special years in history: DISPLAY_WORD = derive_short_word(TOPIC) 
 
FOR each GLYPH_i: 
 
GLYPH_i{ 
  width: adapt_to_composition 
  vertical_scale: tall 
  weight: heavy 
  contrast: infer_from_TOPIC 
  terminals: custom 
  counters: enlarged_if_needed 
  curvature: semantic 
} 
 
FIRST_GLYPH{ 
  outer_boundary: 
      gradually morph into LEFT_SYMBOL 
 
  preserve: 
      essential glyph recognition 
} 
 
LAST_GLYPH{ 
  outer_boundary: 
      gradually morph into RIGHT_SYMBOL 
 
  preserve: 
      essential glyph recognition 
} 
 
MIDDLE_GLYPHS{ 
  maintain typographic rhythm 
  bridge visual tension between outer forms 
} 
 
RULE: 
Do not place the symbols *around* typography. 
Rewrite the typography so its boundaries become the symbols.
