Text is Emotionless

  • Jacob Webb
The aim of this project was to create an interactive piece that would be suitable for an exhibition.

My research focused on how text that is displayed digitally in social networks and messaging often portrays no emotion at all. As a response to this, I crafted a tool that would allow someone to design their own personal message for sharing online.
The tool features various mechanics that make the message dynamic, whilst bringing about a level of character and physicality that is inspired by the original letterpress.
