1. H (helvetica) - Destroyed
3 years ago
Video projected in a middle of a rock/electronica concert for a multimedia performance mixing live video and music. The “H” use the exact proportion of the Helvetica font, who’s a perfect symbol of the swiss mentality and culture.

    Sorry, don't get it... You hit the Helvetica 'H', resembling the stereotypes we seemlessly adobt in our culture/ society? Couldn't it have been the Microsoft Arial (most boring but yet working and most consumed typo on the web) or some other standard-typo crap? Or maybe my french is too bad... But anyways, if reading the comment is needed to understand your artwork, you should probably reconfigure your output.

    Hi Mike and thank you for your comment.
    The “H” use the exact proportion of the Helvetica font, who’s a perfect symbol of the swiss culture. In fact, this video performance was originally projected in Switzerland in a rock/electronica concert for a multimedia performance mixing live video and music. I cant explain you in one comment the characteristic of swiss mentality and culture, but the Helvetica font (whatever is today use everywhere) have something to do with swiss perfection (as well as clock industry, engineering). This video performance was a kind of "revolt" against this search of the perfection, typically Swiss.
