Infinite Type Trooper from lettersaremyfriends.

We wish you a merry christmas and a happy new year!

We are happy to use this opportunity to introduce our latest installation that enables you to experience our animated and generated Buchstabengewitter-Typeface with a haptic tactile interface – an old Rheinmetall Typewriter from the 1920s. We used the Arduino based USB Typewriter Kit by Jack Zylkin to convert this machine into an USB keyboard and give it a long deserved upgrade after almost a century. The keys are send to a PC that is running the Buchstabengewitter vvvv-patch that animates the glyphs. We gonna use it as a realtime commenting tool for talks and events.

If you are interested in booking us as secretaries, please get in touch!

This installation has been part of the first vvvvlagshipstore exhibition, Berlin Dec 2012.
