The project
Then the things could nbe totally different today! I just try to image, what could have happen if...
I supposed i am the inventor of the alphabeth: i took pictures of things that were around me, one for each sound of our alphabeth. It wasn't easy to find pictures that were easily recognizable, but - cheating a little (i used words in 3 languages) - at the end i got 26 photos. I made drawings and semplify them.
After this, i simulated the development of the signs during the centuries and trought different cultures: at the end i had a history of a never born alphabeth. With a different alphabeth we would have not only different typefaces, but also a different way to look at the things of our word.
I made it short, isn't it?! If you would like more informations, please send me a mail
