OSSICLES are the three most delicates bones in your body: waves of matter of different densities make them vibrate creating what we know as sound. This is the visual alphabet of sound waves.

What an unusual FontStruction. Is there an auditory key online somewhere — so we can “hear” the font? Did you make this for a particular reason — I’m intrigued!

Couldn't agree more. But which regional accent, that's what I want to know.

11! That is superb.

Superb idea. 10/10. As a DJ/Producer/Designer I see sound waves like this everyday on Music Software. I've often wondered how to transfer sound patterns to the design world. Thanks for solving the dilemma.

Lauren, the font you came up with on your exchange to the Edinburgh College of Art is a beautiful concept. I hope you develop it further when you return to Melbourne.

Thx.

Very interesting concept. It happens to be a pixel font. A Reflect> Horizontal tool would have been useful. It's a shame we can't play and listen to these fontstructed "letters". 10/10
