This is an interactive, and concept based typography experimental website. Typorganism is based on author’s belief that type is an organism. As a result,typography is a living creature lives in the NET, interact with users, and eventually evolves as an individual organism. This is done by computer algorithm. To exploreanatomy of typography, user can begin interact with this website by finding each typography’s DNA. As user typing alphabet from A to Z and 0 to 9, user can see the each alphabet moving in the screen like if we’re looking at it through the microscope. In addition, user can interact with each alphabet DNA by moving cursor around the circle.
Another interesting piece is ASCII-O-Matic. I have seen this kind of work before, but appealing thing about this is that user can upload their own image and be able see the result. Finally, Visual Composer allow users to convert typography into a music. User can interact with this piece from creating their own compose by typing alphabet, and it plays each alphabet according to the preset sound.
However, I found this website is not interactive as other site, rather it is passive.Also, it was hard to find relationship between each piece and the concept.
