This font imitates a 2D-barcode. I just felt like creating something chaotic. The lower case are alternates for the upper case.

I like when you go on crazy like this. I love the counterpoint of the clean O, as if we were invited to push the button to explode everything, I like the esquisite anarchy of this thing, but I did not understood what you meant by 2D-barcode...

@neurone error: Thanks, that means a lot coming from the master of chaos. The 2d-barcodes have recently become popular for mobile phones to scan. Here is the wikipedia article on the one I was inspired by: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QR_Code

It really looks like a QR Code. Barely legible, but who cares; it's a code. Brilliant work! 10/10

Thank you all, and thank you afrojet for the top pick.

I thought I would give you a sample of this font at work, so I tried to make a phrase fit into the barcode layout. Now, meet Otto the barcode:

I was inspired by this and made my own QR-code font.

Differences: 7x7 characters instead of 6x6, also added characters to make it look more like a QR-code.

this reminds me of HRQR (Human Readable QR code) http://hrqr.org, but I think this actually is more readable.
