Building on our positions touch-points and using our visual experiments to produce a reader aimed to inform and raise awareness about hostile architecture, as well as to serve as a container that synthesises and contains a unified language around our research. 

This last week of the project has been pivotal in the understanding and development of the concept I've been working on for last few weeks. As I thought about my project's critical question, I realised that I was not only trying to explore Blender as a type design software, but I was in fact channelling my interest for the creation of visual systems into this project. Some of these concepts echo in my current exploration and give a backdrop to my interesting in setting variables and constrains as fundamental parts of this project.

While researching artists who use creative coding and generative processes in their work, I discovered Dennis Hoelscher, a motion, graphic, and environmental designer based in Cologne. I was immediately drawn to the materiality of his work, specifically his emphasis on modern Swiss typography and experimental textural pieces.

Last Thursday I had the opportunity of joining a collective editing workshop with Gabriela Matuszyk. I decided to add an entry about it, because I think it's quite relevant for the conceptual and practical development of my translation project.
