Four letters, base26

http://toxi.co.uk/p5/base26

http://toxi.co.uk/p5/base26

Because four-letter words have a special status in the English language and culture ‘base26′ was done to give an overview of (almost) all English four-letter words and to visualize their relations to each other.
Each point is a presentation for a four-letter-word with a position based on 4D coordinates for x,y,z and time. The colors indicate types of words and the wireframe surface depicts the frequency of occurence of letter combinations. (toxi.co.uk/p5/base26)

The Swiss Leander Herzog created a broad range highly inspiring and visually appealing designs mostly implemented with processing. He also digitally fabricated certain pieces and experimented with a drawing machine. Moreover he applied code to font design akin the banner title for the ‘ars electronica’ in 2007.

Marius Watz, computational aesthetics

Today Marius Watz exhibited and talked in [DAM]Berlin Gallery.
Marius Watz is known for his work and teaching in generative art. His visual works use drawing machines, software implementations, large-scale projections or plastics. Moreover he curates Generator.x - ‘a conference and exhibition examining the current role of software and generative strategies in art and design.’ This platform is addressed to those using code as a mean of creative expression whereas his blog documents his activities such as the recent Workshop around Computational Typography (which will end on Thursday 27. Nov.) Here he also provides a list of links as references and resources to ease creating computational typography.

PostSpectacular realized the Print magazine August 2008 cover by designing and digitally fabricating a typographic sculpture using generative form giving. With this work they also indicated the changing scope of ‘print’. The process is part of the artwork and therefore documented as making-of on http://postspectacular.com/process/20080702_printmagcover

Postscript as Programming Language

Some early work of John Maeda is done by Postscript programming. A series of posters show various examples.

Just van Rossum and Erik van Blokland (LettError) built the Typeface Beowolf as their first ‘RandomFont’.
They apply random functions to the letterforms when printing. Thus you get an individual shape for each letter. Computer fonts are rather dynamic programs than static forms. The two designers admit that the random aesthetic here is not that appealing, but the project was “proof that fonts were no longer physical objects but instructions.” (Interviews 1: Print, p.170, Processing. A Programming Handbook for Visual Designers and Artists, 2007 MIT)

Ricard Marxer Piñón tries to “consider the different possibilities of glyph, words and text representation and distribution in space and time”. He uses Processing and Geomerative, a library he created to make it more easy to explore generative geometry with Processing.
Yeohyun Ahn gives some more impressions of the possibilities given with geomerative on www.yeoahn.com/typography_typecode.html
