Type from pattern. Interesting decision.

process IX

Three characters from my typeface so far. Just as fun as I thought it would be, but eating all my time. I might name it Alk. First three I have finished. Plus an odd mouthful to pronounce for only three letters.

process VIII



Type experimentation inspiring my typeface for the final project. I'm leaning towards the bottom image. I find the idea that you only need certain parts of a letterform to be able to read it very perplexing. And fun to mess with. And excuse the vulgarity, please. Well nevermind, it's only implied. I didn't actually write it. Or did I?

Wow, just realized the correlation to the post underneath this. Anyhow, here's my stab at a gridded system. I'm liking this so so so much more than the past few systems. Finally.

btw is this working?

I need to obtain one of these double fingered rings by Good Wood. They just seem so...crucial. And perfect. And I can't stop drooling. Must get myself to Brooklyn asap.

Typeface I found looking through old magz in form. Quite lovely to admire, but looks like a pain in the ass to put to work. I could not find ANY info on this online, but I'm assuming this was made by John Randolph Carter... a poet. Go figure.

Sonic form (top 12" bottom 7"). And futura! And green! Black watercolor plus any other color makes for some spacey spacey fun.
