Research: Paul Elliman

Paul Elliman is an artist and writer based in London. His work, which draws on a range of resources from found typographies to professional voice-overs, explores the mutual interests of technology and language.

He is well known for his use of printing mechanical parts to generate typography (examples shown below). While I would never attempt to copy his style (and really, it looks dated somewhat - this kind of typography could be vectored in a few minutes with today's technology), I feel that I could use more intricate components (circuitboards etc) to produce typographic resolutions digitally.
