Rethinking the Baseline

Explorations in Non-Linear Typography
Travis Kirton

The direct translation of typesetting techniques to the computer was a necessary first step. Now as new forms of technology are arising, computational devices are becoming faster, and physical interfaces are moving away from the keyboard and mouse, it is the right time to start thinking about the next stage of typesetting. This work attempts to do just that. The confluence of digital typesetting, computation as a medium for artistic expression, and the advent of graspable and tangible interfaces creates an incredibly interesting and open space for the field of typography.
