UPDATE
I discovered via this article (http://fontsinuse.com/uses/8007/future-exhibitions-n-1) that geneus1 created a similar font (http://fontstruct.com/fontstructions/show/75591) to this one in 2008. Despite the obvious similarities, I did not know of geneus1's font until 2014/11/28.
Based on Tetris blocks. I tried to avoid using too many 1x4 and 2x2 blocks. I also tried to make each character self-supporting...meaning the blocks are built up from the bottom and the upper blocks are supported by the lower ones and not just floating in mid-air. Due to some design decisions and time constraints, I didn't achieve this with every character.

A few more to go...
C, G, Q, S, 2, 3, and 6 have a S / Z block
I'm not sure what you mean by "have a S / Z block".
They have a floating S block or Z block

Ah, yes I understand now. I mentioned in the description that I tried to make each character self-supporting...meaning the blocks are built up from the bottom and the upper blocks are supported by the lower ones and not just floating in mid-air. However, due to some individual character design decisions and time constraints, I did not achieve this with every character.
aphoria! You're still here. I saw your comment on live in September. (Now we're in October)
M has a floating T block
E has a floating -| block
The E in the sample does have a floating block, but the current E does not. I just never updated the sample.
i wonder if you add more glyphs and move alternates in private use area in Uptake maybe?
