I wanted to see how letters looked when they were transcribed into different languages and symbols. Once I had transcribed one of my letters from the past, I changed the text and translated, to discover and display the different ways in which different communities and societies communicate. They range from the practical languages of Spanish and Japanese to the more unusual, like Wingdings and braille. This has pulled a letter that was written in 1949 into the 21st Century of modern day type and translation.
