Baffeled

  • Alistair Moncur
Since a young age I have always known I was Dyslexic.

Baffeled, was a riddle written by myself which tried to capture the essence of being a Dyslexic and provide clues through the smelling mistakes made in the riddle for the hidden word, 'Dyslexic'.

It was in printing the riddle that letterpress was used and an understanding of print and typography was developed through the setting of type and precision that was needed in laying the text.

This video was then created to try and capture the beauty of using letterpess, demonstrating the process used to create my riddle.

The result ended with a printed riddle, with a stencil placed between the paper, which when rubbed with a pencil was able to reveal the hidden answer.
