Letters become the central elements of all the works in Out of Words, starting with works taken from the AlphaType cycle for which the artist is well known. These works represent alphabets in which the single letters are logos.
Alongside these works, for the first time the show presents a new cycle, Typemoticon, in which the alphabet is composed of letters transformed into emoticons. The video Typemotion makes the letter-logo images correspond to the sounds of letters, pronounced by a sampled, robotic voice.
