Project 6 Reflection

It was originally quite difficult to get started with figuring out where to go from the last project. But after asking questions and figuring out interesting opportunities for creative influence on geometric type, I realized many good things came out of it.

For the grid that I edited from last project, I learned that changing the circles to a smaller size made the letterform much wider but also provided for nontraditional letter forms.

For the 3-11 line experiment, I found that certain letters took more/less lines to create than all 11 lines. Towards the end (for the way I was making them) I learned that the more forced lines there were, the more they looked like calligraphy in a way.

For the spherical grid, they turned out nice, and they were readable but they were somewhat expected. They did however add dimension and a little bit of a 3D effect.

For the parabolic grids, I learned that it really added dimension to it. A lot of unity, but again, it is expected as for establishing the actual letter. It was more about how i could give the forms their own characteristics in the following stage.
