He wanted to know if you could sketch something and whether something can form by assistance of a machine. Just like words do on our phones when we type in random letters. “I didn’t want that you can just ask a machine to design a typeface for you. For me, that wasn’t so interesting or fun. I wanted it to be that you could actually take part in it and then the machine would just help you along.” In the video, we see that his project consists of three steps: there’s the sketching, the digitalizing of the sketches via a machine, and the producing of a download button on a website with which you can download the typeface on your computer.
