I had a visit from some high school kids on Monday and we did various activities with them through out the day at QCA, but in the afternoon, I had to do a tactile typography project, of course! So we made the phrase “WE ‘R’ STRAWSOME!” (12 letters, 12 students) out of giant 3D letters made from drinking straws and kitchen skewers. It was a lot of fun and everyone got to hold their own letter for the photo. My assistant Ashleigh is holding the exclamation mark we made to demonstrate how to make the letters 3D.
Not bad for two hours work. Where were these guys during Goodbye Helvetica?
