Art Inspired by Cars

Two typographers ( Pierre & Damien / plmd.me ) and a pro race pilot (Stef van Campenhoudt) collaborated to design a font with a car.
The car movements were tracked using a custom software, designed by interactive artist Zachary Lieberman. ( openframeworks.cc )

Here’s the video, When Driving Becomes Writing (iQ Font: The Making Of).

I recall BMW doing something like it, but with paint. Here’s the video they released for the Z4.

Meanwhile, you may download the iQ font here. You may also click on the following thumbnails to view the results:

Sweet stuff for those that miss vinyl. Would make some sweet presentation for your homemade mixes.

Only $15.99 for 25 discs. These discs are grooved just like a record, they look and feel like the real thing, except they are 80 minute/700mb multi-speed cdr’s. Each Digital Vinyl CD-R 25pk Spindle comes with 5 assorted colors of orange (shown) violet, blue, green and purple.

These discs use Verbatim’s Azo Blue technology for superior audio writing on burners and and broad read compatibility on all players.

I’m digging the Space Invaders one, as well as the one second from the bottom-left w/ the simple black-silver patterns.
