How I feel when I write is how I felt in my very first typophoto: from the white chatter and turbulent swirl of life's stream, I emerge in stillness, calm. The air into which we are all dissolved is laden with our songs, crossing oceans to flow through us. In that moment of stillness I breath my song into that zephyr, and let if fly with the great harmony.
As you will see, I owe the shape of this epiphany to Justin Tan and Hanna. The premise is simple: we share photographs, we react, and then we write on them. I present for your edification some of my favorite typophotos. I'll let their words wash over you. Experience more of their work (or my own attempts) here.

I love the way you write, Jordan. It's like a soft, warm breeze. :)
ReplyDeleteWhenever Jordan writes, discord comes to a standstill and crickets in their fields are hushed.
