THE EXPERIMENT: The text reads, “The Dance of the Pirates Was Brutal and Short”, but there was nothing short about creating this beastie. I typed the words in Futura Medium, outlined them, and repeated them in layers. Certain repetitions were colored with certain custom pattern swatches, and offset just a bit. The black patterns were created by grabbing sections of a photo of a statue I had broken up using Live Trace. The colored patterns are simple geometry. This, I must say, was a lot of fun to build.
