Thirty unique generative prints based on a font used by the HP-1345A vector graphics display from 1981. A custom program generates the patterns and draws them directly with a mechanical pen plotter, in realtime. The characters are used to create geometric compositions; the glyphs become abstract and geometric shapes and lose their meaning.
