Hand drawn alphabet.
Line drawing with pen.



























I love the detail in this typeface. I think it works even better because the original typeface used is simple so as to not detract from the illustrations. The tiny details make it something special and not just doodles... the letters do not have a stroke around them but enirely made up of the pen illustrations. each letterform has a different element and some have parts missing and illustrations coming out from them. Really lovely work.

Abolish the Forest (2).




































From a series of scratched photographs originally exhibited as part of the Abolish the Forest film screening. I am sure I have seen this before but never blogged it. Each time I see it I like it more. I love the interation between image and type. Beautiful stuff. I think I might try and get a copy of this. I find it so inspirational and... waking! Also I am going to try out scratching photographs to add some typography style to them. 

Jenny Odell - typologies

I prefer Jenny Odell satellite prints more appealling then her type work. I love how the shapes sit together and become one image. She made these images by collaging cut-out imagery from Google Satellite.

Bernd and Hilla Becher

Typologies.




















Two of my favourite photographers. I can't explain how much I admire their work. They are the masters of collections. I have a huge book of their work from which I will upload my favourite image/s... once I get though the beast!

Eric Tabuchi

Alphabet truck.

























I was sure I uploaded this a while back but can't find it! Eric Tabuchi style is quite about typologies (which I love) but I don't find them that engaging for some reason. However this piece I really like. It is interesting to put together in a collection some things we miss day-to-day.

Dan Tobin Smith

Oh my god. I love this guys work. It is amazing! ARGH! Ok... Calm...

My favourite pieces from his work are where he uses perspective to his advantage, creating images which are only truely visable in their entirety when viewed from a certain angle. He is currently working on producing an entire alphabet... I am seriously going to see if he has any need for an assistant if I have any time free. I would absolutely love to mix photography and typography!

Bela Borsodi

Photographer Bela Borsodi shot the word alphabets for WAD magazine. It is reminds me of the H I made in visual language. If these letters were viewed from any other angle, they would not make sense. I love it. I think the intelligence needed to create such a beautiful piece is good. Borsodis other work is pretty impressive too, see last image.

Marc Tasman

Whilst researching Noah K Everyday I found this guy, Marc Tasman. He has made a short film made up of thousands of polaroids including him everyday for 10 years (weather this is true or not people are specualtive) but either way I think it is pretty impressive. The video has mini sequences in also which really bring the whole thing to life. I love it and really want to try it out. I know polaroid camera doesn't give you the best results but I really love the imperfections of the pictures created and the personal feel to the images.
