Using analog technology and typography, this class will challenge students to experiment with the voice of letterforms. Assignments include individual and collaborative projects based on haiku poetry and socially relevant themes printed on a Vandercook proof presses, including a large poster press. There will be a component that challenges the computer to design from an analog perspective through the use of AI, using the same type, content, and perimeters given to the students. Open to MGx students, students that have taken Archetype I, or by recommendation and invitation from faculty. [*Speculative design is an approach that focuses on imagining future scenarios and possibilities.
