Particle Typography (Sketches)

marcus • October 17th, 2007

Recently i have been sketching a typographic design with a new particle system. I have been commissioned by the 24th Kassel Documentary Film and Video Festival to create the identity for their Audiovisual Performance lounge to be held in November. The idea is to use a generative design across different media; posters, flyers, motion graphics and an interactive wallpaper for the specific location. Black and white typographic layouts are converted into flow fields which influence the particles. We hope this generative identity will reflect the procedural nature of many of the invited artists work. Vera will keep you posted.
