Thermal Printer Concrete Poetry

Author: slanted-api

We, as designers, constantly strive to improve our skills, tools, materials, and workflow. This is a normal part of our work in the capitalist market. But what if we consciously downgrade our own tools?

This visual poetry is created on a simple thermal printer using only two non-letter symbols from its limited basic glyph set. By abandoning content and message, we gain the opportunity to focus more on sensations and form creation.
