10 Comments10%20Comments1027 Glyphs27%20Glyphs27I began by exploring the theme of decaying objects, such as fruit, and studied the shape (and change of shape) of the objects, as they progressivly fell apart. By creating hand drawn sketches i began to create a typeface that looked as though it was rotting/melting away. I used a traditional typeface, Times New Roman, that could be considered as quite boring and a font which has been around for a long time and then used it as a base font which i then made to look as though it was rotting and falling apart by refering back to my earlier sketches. Overall I aimed to create a typeface that represents the decay of an older, more traditional and perhaps overused typeface.I%20began%20by%20exploring%20the%20theme%20of%20decaying%20objects%2C%20such%20as%20fruit%2C%20and%20studied%20the%20shape%20%28and%20change%20of%20shape%29%20of%20the%20objects%2C%20as%20they%20progressivly%20fell%20apart.%20By%20creating%20hand%20drawn%20sketches%20i%20began%20to%20create%20a%20typeface%20that%20looked%20as%20though%20it%20was%20rotting%2Fmelting%20away.%20I%20used%20a%20traditional%20typeface%2C%20Times%20New%20Roman%2C%20that%20could%20be%20considered%20as%20quite%20boring%20and%20a%20font%20which%20has%20been%20around%20for%20a%20long%20time%20and%20then%20used%20it%20as%20a%20base%20font%20which%20i%20then%20made%20to%20look%20as%20though%20it%20was%20rotting%20and%20falling%20apart%20by%20refering%20back%20to%20my%20earlier%20sketches.%20Overall%20I%20aimed%20to%20create%20a%20typeface%20that%20represents%20the%20decay%20of%20an%20older%2C%20more%20traditional%20and%20perhaps%20overused%20typeface.

The following is a quote from Wikipedia:

"American Sign Language (or ASL, Ameslan) is the dominant sign language of the Deaf community in the United States, in the 

English-speaking parts of Canada, and in some regions of Mexico. Although the United Kingdom and the United States share English as a 

spoken and written language, British Sign Language (BSL) is quite different from ASL, and the two sign languages are not mutually 

intelligible

ASL is often written with English words in all capital letters, which is known as glossing. This is, however, a method used simply to teach 

the structure of the language. ASL is a visual language, not a written language. There is no one-to-one correspondence between words in 

ASL and English, and much of the inflectional modulation of ASL signs is lost.

There are two true writing systems in use for ASL: a phonemic Stokoe notation, which has a separate symbol or diacritic mark for every 

phonemic hand shape, motion, and position (though it leaves something to be desired in the representation of facial expression), and a more 

popular iconic system called SignWriting, which represents each sign with a rather abstract illustration of its salient features. SignWriting is 

commonly used for student newsletters and similar purposes."
