What an unusual FontStruction. Is there an auditory key online somewhere — so we can “hear” the font? Did you make this for a particular reason — I’m intrigued!

Couldn't agree more. But which regional accent, that's what I want to know.

Superb idea. 10/10. As a DJ/Producer/Designer I see sound waves like this everyday on Music Software. I've often wondered how to transfer sound patterns to the design world. Thanks for solving the dilemma.

Lauren, the font you came up with on your exchange to the Edinburgh College of Art is a beautiful concept. I hope you develop it further when you return to Melbourne.

Thx.

Very interesting concept. It happens to be a pixel font. A Reflect> Horizontal tool would have been useful. It's a shame we can't play and listen to these fontstructed "letters". 10/10
