typography/sound/shapes using conductive paint

Experimenting with conductive paint to look at non verbal communication and at a crossing of the senses. The letters at the top spell out BIRO in moon script which is designed for the visually impaired, this was done at an art hack that I organised called 'Electric Biro'. I haven't yet made sound files but the idea is to create sound that emulates the shape, when you touch the paint it activates the sound file. The curvaceous letter at the bottom is the sign for 'err' written in a phonetic version of English designed in 1958. To err I thought appropriate for a hack event!
Presenting 'work in progress' at Electric Biro art hack with a great book "Shapes for Sounds" by Timothy Donaldson https://www.brainpickings.org/2011/06/21/shapes-for-sounds/
