Description
Entropia is a typeface that responds to sound. Sound makes Entropia increasingly agitated, and the more agitated, the more illegible it becomes. Yet, the more illegible, the more unique it is: absorbed sound from the environment translates into modulations of the letterforms themselves, leaving behind an imprint of activity. Entropia can be set to various states of sensitivity, determining the speed of its growing deterioration. Based on single-stroke letterforms derived from the lettering at the base of the Trajan Column in Rome, Entropia is constantly changing, always in a state of becoming.
