Robotic Type



Josh Nimoy says:
Typography is stylistically influenced by the tools used to make it. I am designing robotic typography in new mechanical ways in order to see how new styles of dynamic signage can emerge from mechanical restriction, and how these styles acclimate into culture. Currently, pixel-based screens with echoes of sans serif largely dominate the signage landscape. Is that a choice we made, or is it the circumstance of mindless re-use?
