Campbells Text 1

This assignment focused on experimenting with fonts and ways to manipulate them, as well as working with grids.  I used font to mimic some of the qualities of the soup (especially "condensed"), and emphasize the aspects of the text that I felt were the most important.

Now is the Time

For this assignment, I used different grids, both natural and physically imposed, to organize the phrase "now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country" in different ways.  In most of them, I emphasized words that I felt were more important to the meaning of the quote, except for one example where I kept all of the words the same size to focus on the shape of the grid.

Typography

For this assignment, I used typography to illustrate Benjamin Franklin's famous kite experiment that discovered the basis for a lot of electrical methods.  I chose this event because I was inspired by the possibility to make the words "lightning: and "electricity" look like the actual phenomenon that they were describing.  I focused on these two words, but put the kite in the background as a subtle nod to the experiment.
