These type studies were an attempt
to liberate type from its structure,
meaning, form and dimensionality.
By removing the typeface's imposed structure, meaning and form, and
applying dimensionality, the type
becomes a completely new object,
communicating an entirely new
language.

Garamond, the source typeface used
for the first of the two films was
designed by Claude Garamond (1490-
1561). The original source audio,
"Rachell's Weepinge," was written by
Christopher Tye during the early 16th
century, has also been recontextua-
lized to take on a completely new form.

Univers, the source typeface in the
second film (see above), was designed
in 1954 by Adrian Frutiger. The source
audio is derived from "Music For
Piano # 2," written by John Cage in
1953—which too has been extruded
and recontextualized to take on a
completely new form.
