Outlaws 2001

With the visit of Evert Bloemsma, the participants were called “outlaws”.
They broke all possible classical type laws, forced by…???

The interface looked like an old computer from the CIA.
Mugshots were taken from everyone, and a serial number was added
Whenever Evert came up with a type law, somebody broke it… It was an interesting tension between classical and experimental typography.

His crime was having too much fun during the workshop!

Most of the time quickly ending in “Game Over”.
And more if you want to! By using lowercase and uppercase the font was able to build "chains".

No wonder: he climbed on top of the roof of the art college and as a sniper shot pictures of great Belgian backstreets.

In his interface you could build your own (type of) Belgian Backstreet Castle!

What was left: smoke and the in between air.
