Patterns in Digital Art For over a week I had the Metaflop website (https://www.metaflop.com/modulator) tab open and had forgotten it was there. Since Karen and Andy mentioned the websites Metaflop and Metapolator I have been meaning to have a play around, as I love typography, but I know nothing about type design.

I found the font building process on Metaflop difficult, probably because I didn’t have a strong understanding of the parametrics I was using to build it, but also because I was ultimately limited by the what the program allowed me to do.

While it was fun to play around with and I came up with two interesting fonts, I would have loved to be able to create a more playful, rather than structural looking font. 

This caused me to revisit my week 11 lecture notes and I immediately had a better understanding of my notes. When Karen stated “we moved into a hybrid state between a material world and a digital world” I though this was an interesting concept, but it was only after having been on metaflop that I could really understand the move of human to computer - I think we have come a long way with technology but there is still something to be said for handwriting and the manual creation of typefaces I think.
