Creating simple type edited by sound

in General Discussion • Other • 5 months ago

Hello,

I am currently trying to design type that reacts to sound but when looking for sketches they are really complicated visually.

(playing with both minim/geomerative)

But at the moment all I am looking for as a start point is ex. mouseX makes serifs on typeface thicker /mouseY changes the typeface x-height...

I can't seem to find any simples sketches to work from that don't dip into geomerative type stuff. Really just looking for a simple visualiser than can make type thinner/thicker, tall/short and distort the serifs in some way.

Is the only way to do this to call different typefaces to respond to different points? surely one typeface can be manipulated in a subtle way.

If anyone can help me that would be amazing!

Cheers

Just to edit this slightly... If i am sounding a bit confusing!

In essence, It would be to be able to edit specific points on the vertex or curves of a font to produce varied versions.

At the moment, all that I can find is the ability to edit all points at the same time applying a set of rules to it, rather than being able to be specific about which points I want to edit..

Thanks again
