In order to create an awareness around ‘unconventional’ typographic applications I created two interactive posters. One which went up in the Greenside Design Center, and the other at my offices in Parktown North. Even though it showcased one ‘unconventional’ typographic application, it was meant as a ‘STOP, LOOK & SEE – this can be considered a good typographic solution’ devise. In many cases it has been a success. It has created an awareness as well as an interest for people to come visit this blog. However there are still some logistics I have to work out.
Such as, how do I know where the flow of traffic to this site is coming from? Is it coming from the college or from my office? How can I monitor this? How interested are the people visiting my blog, in learning about ‘unconventional’ typographic applications? In many cases, the pictures I have taken of the interactive posters, have shown that people are playing around – so if anything! At least I’m sparking some sort of interest around typography!
