Lahti 1998
During one week the students had to learn Fontographer, Macromedia Director and then had to design an experimental font and present it using new media.
On friday a cd-rom was produced with all the projects being presented. It worked! Unfortunately I can not show you here the actual cd-rom. I'm working to have an old computer that can run it and tape it. I lost the original unprotected version too.
First Workshop Ever
At the beginning of the week I presented the students work from students in Antwerp.
I did not tell them it was work made during the course of 1 year, nor that this was the first time ever I did this...
The project was called typeFACES when accidently a photograph of the students was blurred and their faces looked like characters. Me, and the students, are still amazed on how much work has been done that week…
He arrived on wednesday and used the font he was working on…It’s about every character’s look and feel (and sound)
Imagine the milennium bug. No more computers, electricity. Creating type with just seven stencils!
Used styrofoam to create a 3d typeface.
Suck my Styrox became the sentence of the week.
He always dreamed of making this font.
Sex and drugs and type...
AKA Black Peider....
Had fun with staples all week.
