RLW — Minority of the Dead
More Info
The backstory: 5 September, 2012 was the day John Cage would have turned 100. Centenary celebrations for a prominent artist would seem rather conventional. Inappropriate for an extremely unconventional artist. But seemingly inappropriate things can be quite appropriate in unconventional contexts. So why not participate in a 100th birthday commemorative project? No sooner said than done...

"Constructed on a strict baseline grid inspired by the form of a musical score. Populated with contrasting typefaces - a play on the compositional bs the computed, the academic and the playful. Typeset in ITC Golden Cockerel Roman, created for Golden Cockerel Press, a private press which made handmade limited editions of classic works; and TwoBlock A 096 Regular, a part of an extensive, modular Two Type System framework."
