Type Reinvented

Type Reinvented are three digital art installations–SENSUAL POWER, GLYPH.INDEX, and RESPONSIVE ENERGY–which explore the future of typography.

Sensual Power, which was presented at Le Book conference in Paris, and Glyph.Index, which was realised at Resonate Festival in Belgrade, are both interactive installations.

The overall framework for these installations was created with openFrameworks , V8 Javasscript Engine and Skia.
V8 enabled us to work more quickly once it was setup and Skia is a nice C++ Object-Oriented 2D graphics library which we used for font rendering.
