Neverth= eless, I prefer to keep all the font and fontsize definitions and=20 tweaks together in the preamble. This poster is not the only work I'm=20 planning to do in ConTeXt, and I need to learn to swim while already in=20 the water ;) .
For short texts where you want a certain style and size (e.g. a title=20 page or a poster with few words) \definedfont is the recommended method, for larger amounts of the text (e.g. the abstract of a book) you can=20 use \switchtobodyfont to change the size.
Meanwhi= le I found the command \definebodyfontswitch and defined switches=20 like \normalsize, \scriptsize, \large, \Large etc.
The \definebodyfontswitch creates only a command which uses=20 \switchtobodyfont with a fixed number of arguments.
But this doesn't explain why= =20 \definebodyfontenvironment did not do=20 anything in my MNWE. The fonts book is not very clear on its intended=20 use.
You put spaces before and after =3D which aren=E2=80=99t allowed there.
