Leigh,
Although I am doing personal research on type in the digital environment, I'm
not sure of specific research on legibility of typefaces in this environment,
though I'm sure there are some. But, I can recommend Dan Friedman's "Radical
Modernism," where he brings out his theory of legibility vs. readability. I
believe that his theorizing is relevant to the issues of type in web and
movement/time based media.
