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...

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

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:
