SHAPES ON TAPE
Retro lockup for a Brooklyn-based synthpop duo. Cues were taken from blank VHS and cassette tape covers as well as 80s albums such as this.
INCHEON!
INCHEON! is an experimental display typeface inspired by a trip to Seoul and the curvilinear geometry of hangul, the Korean written language. The typeface was named after the Incheon International Airport by which I arrived; where east meets west. The aim was to create a condensed sans serif that seemingly compartmentalizes into digraphs, much like how Korean letters (jamo) fit into one another to form a single, phonetic sound. It was important to maintain the modern spirit of hangul, an alphabet that was historically designed, and the bold signage that bombarded me as I walked down the streets of Seoul.
LENSES
Lenses is an interactive audiovisual installation that uses prisms, light and sound to represent the interplay of ideas between HUSH's designers, architects, musicians, and technologists. By arranging the prisms across a surface designed to bend and reflect light, users build a glowing, colorful visual array. This is then read by custom software and translated into sounds in real-time, resulting in a warm, ambient soundscape to accompany the powerful visual composition.
An accompanying gift card was designed to inspire friends and partners at the start of 2016. I designed a miniature, interactive experience akin to Lenses that allows recipients to create their own compositions via layers of printed transparencies.
