Better late than never…!

I am quite aware at the fact that the due for the second part of this module was due sometime back on 10th of October, it is a pity I never got around to upload the finished sets of typography but here it is:
‘702 – (Handle and Cap)’ – The font is made out of the cap for which you speak into, screwed onto the receiver of the phone; along with the metallic handle in which could be found on the top of the phone itself.
AND…
‘702 – (Receiver and Cord)’ – Self-explanatory, font made by arranging the telephone receiver and the cord into the alphabet itself.
Hardly a practical fonts but there you go, pieced out from the set guidelines from the brief.
‘Create Your Letter Art’

Here is the site.
Stumbled upon this really neat website that is ’sort-of’ similar to ‘Typography Kicks Ass’, except, instead of sending messages in to the site for it to randomly generate its alphabets, this site allows a direct interaction with the fonts, allowing you to pick and drag the words into a panel for instant preview. Really neat site.
This site will definitely serve as an important reference source for upcoming works.
‘Lego Font Creator’

I happened to stumble across this really neat application that allows the interaction with Lego blocks done by Lineto over at Objetgraphik. The application itself is actually quite sophisticated:

I’m sure many out there are familiar with this site with a huge collection of vernacular type messages submitted by viewers but just thought I’ll add the link here for future references:
