This for a typographer is a revelation, no longer are the words and there meanings the first point of communication. The letterforms and typographic arrangement are the first and foremost communication channels. This book contains a range of different morse font families that can be used for a range of different purposes, some stray off the prescribed form for morse code whereas others are clearly recognisable as morse code. All have their own personality, a personality that comes through entirely from the shape of 3 glyphs. http://www.behance.net/Gallery/36-Weights-of-Morse/241945 Morse code reduces language down to a series of long and short pulse sounds or dits and dahs which is displayed typographically with a series of dots and dashes.

This data then dictated the content of the project, which in turn dictated certain aspects of the design.i.e. The point size of the totaling labels is directly given by the amount of times the word was said. The circles are also this given point size. http://www.behance.net/Gallery/3-Minutes/150452 This is a piece testing speed of 3 forms of communication. i.e.typing(computer), Writing(Letters), Spoken(phone) I counted the amount of times i could say hello in three minutes.
